The differing presentation and thoroughly imaginative scenarios, styles, and perspectives of vampire kind make this anthology particularly enjoyable. With the beginning of each story you have a clear pallette because there are almost no stereotypical leanings throughout. If you can ignore the hackneyed cover art I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys vampire fiction at its broadest and most creative. If you are looking for vampire action and bloodbath escapades in eastern European settings - I would suggest dipping in a different pool of authors.

Some great stories, Some very bad stories. Very disturbed by a story about a monster that cut up a 13 year old girl, small enough for her body to fit in a box, because he didn't like his toys to fight back. Would not recommend to the average reader.

A little dar for me

If you like vampires, this collection of short stories will really tickle your fancy. It also introduced me to several great authors that I now love. I had such fun listening to these stories, and the great collection on narrators. Have fun!

what a great read

While there are a few stories that seem like the author didn't know how to properly end them, the majority are excellent tales. Very different takes on what it is to be Vampire.

Great Number of Above Average Stories
