scottwoods's review

3.0

This is a 4-star book that's taking a hit because it's got a noticeable amount of typos. The stylistic range of this book is refreshingly contemporary without trying too hard, and it has a great mix of length, voices and themes. Of the numerous collections I've read, this was definitely one of the more engaging ones. I don't recommend it for people fresh to Lovecraft's mythos, but it contains a number of pearls, most notably "Mr. Skin" (Victor Milan), "Typo" (Michael D. Winkle) and "Pickman's Legacy" (Gordon Linzner).
