4.0

–>I received a free copy of this in exchange for an honest review.<–

The third volume is consistent throughout this time (although there are still plenty of average stories I shrugged at) and has thankfully toned down the edginess for edginess' sake.

There were a lot of ideas giving it the variety it needed and several of them had some very gross body horror going on which I enjoyed because that's just fun.

My favorites were the "The Station" simply because it was a clever and creepy idea, and "Fish Bait" because well, what a random damn story that committed fully to its craziness.

I don't think there were any stories that I flat out hated or frustrated me as in the previous two volumes; just the usual mixed bag thing you get in collections.

I think (hope) the series is settling in and keeps getting better because this one was good and a slight improvement overall.
