maeclair's review against another edition

5.0

I’m a fan of the unusual, the spooky and the speculative. Sometimes, I just want a good short story rather than a full length novel, thus this book fits the bill perfectly! Many times in a collection, some stories soar and others fall flat. You end up with a mixed bag. But in Shades and Shadows, each story is brilliantly executed. I loved the Night-Gallery type spookiness paired with intelligent writing and surprising plots. Awesome story telling all the way around. I highly recommend for anyone who enjoys eerie, well-written fiction.
