Publisher's summary

A collection of new and exclusive short stories inspired by the Baba Yaga. Featuring Gwendolyn Kiste, Stephanie M. Wytovich, Mercedes M. Yardley, Monique Snyman, Donna Lynch, Lisa Quigley, and R. J. Joseph, with a foreword by Christina Henry.

Deep in the dark forest, in a cottage that spins on birds’ legs behind a fence topped with human skulls, lives the baba yaga. A guardian of the water of life, she lives with her sisters and takes to the skies in a giant mortar and pestle, creating tempests as she goes. Those who come across the baba yaga may find help, or hinderance, or horror. She is wild, she is woman, she is witch—and these are her tales.

Edited by Lindy Ryan, this collection brings together some of today’s leading voices of women-in-horror as they pay tribute to the baba yaga, and go Into the Forest.

Wild and fierce and feminine. 3 to 4+ Star tales

A women in horror anthology. Wild and fierce and feminine. Tales of the Baba Yaga.

A 3-Star anthology with a few 4+ Stars sprinkled about. I wee fantasy heavy in some stories for my taste, but I sort of knew that going in. I think a few overly dramatic narrations hurt a few of the stories as well but most was very well done and carried the tone of the anthology.

I didn’t keep track, but off the top of my head, a few of my favorites were from Lisa Quigley, Monique Steinman, Mercedes M. Yardley and R.J. Joseph.

Great anthology for Baba Yaga fans

This anthology has a really good selection of stories featuring Baba Yaga. I think my only complaint is that a few stories took a few too many liberties with her mythos. Overall though it is a really solid read especially for horror fans who are interested in folk horror.

My rating 4.5/5
