A varied, engrossing anthology of Dream Horror, NEVER WAKE assembles nightmarish visions & fantasical works of imagination to haunt your waking hours. These liminal tales effectively capture the weird, unreal, surreal, horrific (& sometimes dangerous-seeming) nature of slumber. (Crystal Lake)

HAVE YOU DECIDED ON YOUR QUESTION tells a darkly gripping, relatable tale of a girl poisoned by potential possibilities. This twisted take on technology is made more frightening because of how plausible (and perhaps, inevitable) the future it describes seems to be.

This is a rather uneven, somewhat bleak collection but I enjoyed the hell out of the first 2 of these 5 stories (& only one tale was "eh," imo.) Malerman is super prolific & there's plenty here to entertain, but I didn't enjoy SPIN A BLACK YARN as much as some other books of his. (Del Rey)

LOOKING GLASS SOUND is a prism, and the story it refracts shimmers & wavers. This book is a marvel; a maze that leads back into itself. Nothing is what it seems & ghosts linger everywhere, crying out to be heard. Catriona Ward has created a tragic, enigmatic, audacious wonder. (Tor Nightfire)

Catherine McCarthy's MOSAIC is itself a mosaic: the deftly assembled pieces of mystery, folk horror, & cosmic horror reveal a satisfying, rich novella w emotional depth that's vivid, engrossing, & atmospheric. A modern twist on a familiar mythos that horror fans will relish. (Dark Matter Ink)

DEHISCENT is a tale that defies easy categorization & is utterly, wonderfully unique. This vivid, striking debut from Ashley Deng is filled with haunted things: a house, a planet, a society, a little girl. It's delicate; sweetly horrific- an earthy, enthralling, eerie read. (Tenebrous Press)

HAUNTING LESSONS will haunt you. Patrick Barb has created a tragic little tale that packs a powerful punch of pathos & pain within its spare but effective/affecting prose. Caitlin Marceau's illustrations are the perfect compliment to this poignant, unique, memorable story. (Shortwave)

SPLIT SCREAM Vol 3 is an eerie, darkly fun double feature of horror showcasing the lengths artists will go to remain true to themselves. Barb's twisted tale of family bonds/traditions will horrify & haunt; McCarthy's nightmarish novella of survival is terrifying & tragic. (Dread Stone Press)

An enchanting folk-horror/fantasy, WHISPERWOOD is a fresh, richly imaginative fable filled w flawed people & ominous creatures, but it holds empathy, humanity, & respect for them all. Alex Woodroe has conjured up a magical place brimming w Darkness & Light but most of all, Hope.

HYSTERIA LOLLY & LADY VANITY by Ali Seay is a ferocious, powerful pair of tales. One darkly pleasurable read about true justice; the other a horrifyingly relatable struggle of unhealthy obsession. Emotion, gore, gratification, catharsis, horror- it's all here & it's GREAT. (Grindhouse Press)

Playfully disgusting- and subversive- D. Slater's HOUSE OF ROT is overflowing w/ mold & mayhem. It's icky, relatable, tragic, ridiculous, horrifying. This fungi fable fosters some serious thoughts on trying to survive in a world that wants to infect, poison, and consume you. (Tenebrous Press)
