I enjoyed this book. It's difficult to pull out my favorite stories as I read it over the last three months with several other books in between.
I was introduced to some new authors and found them interesting, not only in style but story.

Wow, what a collection. I listened to the audiobook and it did not disappoint. Lots of great stories here, great mix of genres and themes. Worth the money for sure, especially to my audiobook listeners, because you get 8 hours of creepy crawly adventure.
