Among the Shadows: Tales from the Darker Side by L.M. Montgomery
3.0
The problem with a collection of short stories is that there will always be some you don't like and others you do. Even when the author is somebody I adore (yes, despite Kilmeny of the Orchard, I still love you Lucy Maud.) So really, it all comes down to percentages. What percentage of the collection did I enjoy? What percentage didn't make the grade?
Among the Shadows was a success for me. I enjoyed or was entertained by the majority of what I read. Most of the stories retained that sweet old fashioned spirit that emanates from L. M. Montgomery's better written books, despite being stories about murderers or ghosts or nasty characters.
Overall, despite being one of Ms. Montgomery's more obscure works, Among the Shadows was a good read.
