I received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
Drabble collections are a great way to squeeze a little reading into your day. I love the ease of reading 100-word stories and there are some spectacular ones in this collection.
A nice variety of creepy stories that include Norse mythology, conjuring, kelpies, Greek mythology, sacrifices, and Lovecraftian themes, just to name a few. This is a great mix with a very interesting theme.
Some of my favorites were Noa Covo's "Of Love, Of Ichor", "Bones", and "Icarus and the Minotaur". I really enjoyed her writing style. I also especially enjoyed Jess Rhodes "Metastatic", [a:Galina Trefil|13260948|Galina Trefil|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1426976437p2/13260948.jpg]'s "Not To Be Underestimated", [a:Kimberly Rei|18062073|Kimberly Rei|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]'s "The Wrong Neighborhood", [a:Kathleen Halecki|15561229|Kathleen Halecki|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]'s "The Final Journey", [a:Chris Hewitt|6888072|Chris Hewitt|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]'s "Sins of the Father", and [a:Tor-Anders Ulven|19891248|Tor-Anders Ulven|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]'s "Draugr".
