Title pretty well defines the book. Cover is a little bit much. Good place to find new authors. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Some good stories but a lot of so-so ones *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 22, 2014* As a preface to this review, let me say that I wish Amazon allowed half-stars. I wanted to give this exactly 2.5 out of 5, since it is that average. Moving on...We'll begin on a positive note. There are a few good, standout stories here. Neil Gaiman is always great and his Sherlock Holmes story here does not disappoint. Lillian Stewart Carl's "The Necromancer's Apprentice" is by turns mysterious and hilarious. Joe R. Lansdale channels William Hope Hodgson replacing the venerable Carnacki with a young woman who acts and speaks just like him in "The Case of the Stalking Shadow." Bradley Denton's "The Adakian Eagle" is a great little wartime novella. Caitlin R. Keirnan serves up weird, erotic noir in "The Maltese Unicorn." Finally "Fox Tails" by Richard Parks, set in medieval Japan, is a welcome break in setting from the 20th & 21st century urban landscapes which most of these stories take place, and was good enough to make me rush out to order a whole collection of stories about the main character.Now on to the criticism. Although there are a few middling stories among those not listed above, many of them were a bit of a chore at times and nearly a third are indistinguishable save for the details. Out of the 23 stories in this anthology, around 8 could be summarized as "A (detective/bounty hunter/private investigator), who is secretly a (vampire/werewolf/wizard/witch), tracks down a criminal that turns out to be a (vampire/werewolf/wizard/witch)". There is a lot of derivative urban fantasy pastiche here, and it probably isn't worth wading through it all like I did. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A reprint or I ordered it twice *by A***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 2, 2013* Getting old is heck. I know I have read this before, and perhaps in another compilation. But I downloaded it on my kindle and the last time might have been a paper book. So bottom line is this: make sure you have not read it before. It might be new to you. The good news is that I am reading it again because it has a lot of good authors and memory being what it is (or isn't), I can enjoy it again. I just finished Simon Green's short story and I knew I had read it, but did not recall the murderer before the last page. Hah!
