The Halloween Collection by Alan Nayes, Shéa MacLeod, The Eclective, Heather Marie Adkins, Jack Wallen, Indie Eclective, Talia Jager, P.J. Jones, Lizzy Ford, Julia Crane, M. Edward McNally
1.0

This collection of mostly bad short stories that just stop when the requisite word count is reached (or so it seems) has at least one redeeming tale. I enjoyed "Sunwalker's Kiss" enough to be on the lookout for more from its author Shea McLeod. In fact I may just get the novels in the Sunwalker's saga. I must also confess that I enjoyed the story that followed immediately after, "Magickal Vendetta." That makes Heather Adkins' THE TEMPLE another possible to-be- read. The obvious purpose of this collection is to tantalize the reader into buying longer works by the contributors. The final score -- two tantalized, the other seven were crap.
