I only read the Jim Butcher story "Day Off" so far. It's a riot: a good funny short story.

Some of these stories had me LOL-ing, some were amusing, and others fell flat.

Hell in a Handbasket, to funny!

Great anthology. I enjoyed all the stories. The funniest was Mr. Bear by Joe R. Lansdale. It was just so wrong. LOL Hell in a Handbasket by Lucien Soulban was hilarious too. Another funny one was High Kicks and Misdemeanors by Lucien Soulban. And yet another funny was Bitches of the Night by Nancy Kilpatrick. My favorite was Day Off by Jim Butcher but I am a bit biased to Harry Dresden.

I forgot until I read this book how short a short story actually is. I am so used to reading these books that have three authors and three stories (each story being in the 100 page range) that I forgot how FUN three page to 20 page stories can be. It's also a great way to wet your palet on an author you were not real sure about.

This collection was quite fun and hardly any clunkers in the bunch. Perfect book for a short attention span or when you only have a little time here and there to read.

The short story was a tad disappointing. I didn't come away from the book with any gain on the characters or the storyline for the bigger picture in that world.

Books I've read and provided detailed reviews over the years but all data is lost after accidental deletion and GD refuse to restore it back.

Adding books back to my library for my own reference and tracking purposes

To be fair, I only read this for the Sherrilyn Kenyon story.

I was disappointed my this book. With all the good authors, I expected it to be better but it wasn't so I stopped wasting my time.
