This is only the second Crazy Ink anthology I've read, but so far it's my favorite. It was interesting to see each author's take on the theme of absolution, the setting and the characters they chose to use. I would say that I was really into about 90% of the stories, but even the stories that weren't really my cup of tea were still good and enjoyable to read. I have more CI anthologies waiting for me on my Kindle, and Absolution has only made me more excited to read them!
