"The Black Door" by Domino Finn.
Great story. Well-structured. Poorly written.
On a side note, I quit reading the first book in the accompanying series because the protagonist was an arrogant prick. Same problem (same protag) in this story, but it's toned down a hair.

"A Drive in the Country" by Craig Schaefer
Holy cow. Best short story I've read in a while. Definitely a 5-star-er.

"Family Business" by Rob Cornell
Boring. Skimmed partway through, then gave up and skipped the rest.

Angry Spark by Al K. Line
Sigh. I jinxed myself by liking the last story. This one SUCKED. I should've known by the corny pen name that it would be crap. Skipped it after the first page or so was just horribly written. Maybe there's a good story in there. I'll never know because I do not have the patience for shitty writing.

Hard Row by Ambrose Ibsen.
Another not bad story with writing that needed a good polish. The dialogue was sharp and crisp, though, so all in all, the stories are getting better, if the protags are the same ol same ol.

"Dance of the Dead" by Sonya Bateman
Not bad at all. The hero had too many powers (Double Mumbo Jumbo) and the writing faltered at times, but overall, it was a decent read.

Got not even halfway through the first scene of the first story, "The Bull Demon King" by J.A. Cipriano, and wow. I had to skim the rest of the story. It was HORRIBLE.
Please let the rest of the stories not be that bad...
