while i thought the "return of effie kolb" story is a bit of a clunker, the rest were great --- what i expect from a short bprd/hellboy story.

 Most of the stories collected here were re-reads for me, though reading them all together was a pretty solid reading experience. The Return of Effie Kolb was alright, but not my favorite. I would give it 3 stars on its own. Long Night at Goloski Station was amazing and a new favorite! Her Fatal Hour, The Sending, and The Seven Wives Club were re-reads from single issues and I would leave those ratings as is.
