Book Reviews of The Mammoth Book of Best New Horror 19
Book Review: The biggest and best yet!
Summary: 5 Stars
Last year's volume recently won the British Fantasy Society Award for Best Anthology of the Year, and deservedly so -
- but what about this year's Volume 19, which is one of the longest in the series, a total - from cover to cover - of 640 pages?
Simply put, these are the best short stories you'll read this year, period. In ANY genre. 'Nuff said.
(This review comes from an advance copy bought at the FantasyCon, Nottingham England book launch on September 20th, 2008. Twelve of the contributors were on hand to sign the book. Only 50 advance copies were made available for the launch.)
If you haven't already done so, I urge you to seek out Volume 18, for not only is it itself an award-winning book, but so are three of the stories inside: Elizabeth Hand, Gene Wolfe and Geoff Ryman. Also included in last year's volume are brilliantly blazing stories by Glen Hirshberg, David Morrell, Al Sarrantonio (editor of the massive 999 anthology a few years back), Richard C. Matheson and an 88 page novella by the alwasy consistently dependable Kim Newman!
Summary of The Mammoth Book of Best New Horror 19
This collection features the most comprehensive yearly overview of horror around the world in all its incarnations, an impressively researched necrology, and a list of indispensable contact addresses for the dedicated reader and budding writer alike. This is the very best of new short stories and novellas by today's masters of the macabre. Contributors include such names as Neil Gaiman, Gene Wolfe, Brian Keene, Michael Marshall Smith, Ramsey Campbell, Kim Newman, Elizabeth Massie, Glen Hirshberg, Peter Atkins, and Tanith Lee. This is required reading for any fan of ghoulish fiction.
