Nybo's collection runs the spectrum of dark themes from zombies to demons. Yet the characters have usually found their niche, living comfortably in an otherwise horrifying situation. The juxtaposition of competence amidst chaos gives the reader a warm fire to sidle up to while the ravening wolves howl.

Anybody paying attention will know which of these stories is my favorite, but I also really loved Soul Collector.
