SNAFU: Wolves at the Door by Steve Coate, Geoff Brown, Amanda J. Spedding, Brian W. Taylor, David W. Amendola, James A. Moore, John W. Dennehy, Kirsten Cross, G.N. Braun, R.P.L. Johnson
2.0
Disclaimer: This book was one of many I read as a judge for the 2015 Aurealis Awards. This review is my personal opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of any judging panel, the judging coordinator or the Aurealis Awards management team.
Short review: consistent, but only in being uninspiring and icky. Unlike the previous SNAFU anthology I had read, where I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of writing, this just failed. There are so many interesting things that could be done with the werewolf myth in a military setting, but this set of stories appeared completely fixated on a single (dull) variation.
Unfortunately, I didn't make specific story notes.
