Reviews

[Brian Cohen · Rating 3 out of 5]

I have a number of Marvin Kaye’s anthologies and this has been my least favorite so far, but that’s not to say it wasn’t good. I would have rated it a four, but since I didn’t make any notes of specific authors to look up (although I would certainly read more of any of their work), and there was one story that was graphic in its depiction of a parent abusing his child (trigger warning), I’m dropping to a three.

Collection of short stories, some are better than others.

[Maryjane Coons · Rating 1 out of 5]

Just not for me. If don't like to skip through A lot of stories.

[Elizabeth Nesbit-comer · Rating 3 out of 5]

Only a few of the stories really kept my interest and there were some pretty boring ones that I skipped though.
