"The Omen Days" is a great story to read on Christmas Day. Chill inducing beautiful story with Austin references.

I am not a big fan of short stories/novellas in general; but I enjoyed this collection. Some, of course, were better, or longer, or more interesting, or better written than others; but there was not a truly lousy one in the book. I believe there are 12 complete short stories and three “sneak peeks” in total. Ellison is a dependably good author.
