The thing that struck me about Boo: Volume Two is that, while aiming to frighten, spook, and creep-out the reader, they aren’t all stories I’d classify as horror. Genre-wise they read like fantasy, science fiction, and others (usually whatever genre the author specializes in) with a horror-like element. For example, Lynne Cantwell’s Revenge of the Remora is a Contemporary or Urban Fantasy about two girls who are friends, but both after the same guy, a high school friend who is now a big time musician. The fantasy element of the story turns out to be where the spooky or frightening part of the story comes from. I enjoyed most of the stories with Cantwell’s, Rich Meyer’s Toynbee’s Folly, LB Clark’s Under the Moon, and The Procedure by Christopher O’Banion as those that stood out for me. But, with a wide variety of stories, none of them bad, your list will surely be different.

I really enjoyed this anthology of spooky stories – most written by some of my favorite Indie authors. This is the second volume from the DB Collective and, though I enjoyed the first volume more, it is definitely worth the read. There is something for everyone, including those who love romance.

It's the perfect time to cozy up with a comfy blanket, hot beverage, and some frightful reads. For 0.99, you can beat this collection, Folks. All of the money goes to charity, too. Give this anthology a try and you'll come to love these writers as much as I do.
