It took me months to read this. First, I hate short stories. Really, why should I invest twelve pages to enjoy a character just to never see them again. Urg. That said this collection has some gems in it. It also had some duds, and that was why I had to keep putting the book down. I finally finished the last “dud” today.
I know when I start noting how many pages a story is...the collection is over for me.
The best story in this collection, IMHO, is Flying by Delia Sherman. I also enjoyed Vampire Weather by Garth Nix.
Overall: if you are in the mood for vampire lit, then go for it. If you are over the fangers, as I suspect I am, let it go.
So far a couple of the stories have been OK but so far I dread reading the next one so I'm putting this to the side for now.
