I won an ARC of this anthology from the Goodreads' Giveaways, and I'm rather glad I did. The Monster's Corner was definitely a book I'd pick up in stores. This is an excellent selection of stories, though not necessarily what I was expecting when I cracked open the spine. There are a few stories I liked less than others, but, for the most part I felt all the contributing writers had something fresh to say. My favorite tales--and I do hate picking favorites because several of the stories featured characters I found entertaining--included "Torn Stitches, Shattered Glass" by Kevin J. Anderson (a must-read for fans of Frankenstein's monster), "Less of a Girl" by Chelsea Cain (short and...well, not so sweet--but that's the point, right?), "Rakshasi" by Kelley Armstrong, and "Breeding the Demons" by Nate Kenyon (how are demons made, anyhow?). Also, Simon R. Green's closing number gave me a laugh and helped round out the bunch.

All in all? Worth the read if you're a fan of the genre.
