Im sure this is henceforth going to be the default stocking filler for any horror fan in your life." HorrorTree "Datlow, award-winning editor in speculative fiction, comes through once again ... the gut punch of Tananarive Due and Stephen Graham Jones stories ... cannot be missed." Booklist Starred Review "New works from some of the horror greats" BookRiot "Certifiably creepy... undeniably diverse spanning oceans and continents ...[to] make the connection between the so-called happiest time of the year and all manner of sinister goings-on seem as natural as gingerbread and eggnog." Rue Morgue "Expertly crafted, adult-in-tone fairy tales set in or around the happiest time of the year.... Its redolent with festive atmosphere, but its got lots to say that may not always be comforting (as did Dickens, of course), and it offers a varied range of macabre interest, often of a sort you wont have encountered in Christmas fiction before, and yet all of which fits perfectly into the seasonal mold." -Paul Finch The perfect snow-covered curveball for the horror fan, traditional story-lover, or just unfestive humbug in your life Perspective Together, these authors and their stories comprise a fresh and diverse holiday horror anthology that will have you dread the season in new ways. Dead Reckonings Praise for When Things Get Dark "This compilation of stories that make the mundane seem terrifying is chilling and uncanny, offering tropes that will be familiar to readers of Jacksons work (witchy women, eerie suburbia) but with unique touches that could come only from these individuals authors." - New York Public Library Best Books Other stories are equally memorable, but for me, the outstanding one is Skinder's Veil, a breathtaking blend of fairytale, dream and reality by the incomparable Kelly Link.
