Will add reviews of each story as I move through it, picking it up from time to time, not necessarily in order.
POP STAR IN THE UGLY BAR, by Bentley Little: Short and ferociously nasty, this story has no plot, instead heads straight to depravity. One of the sicker things I've read in a while. Can't recommend for the squeamish or offendable. I'm staying away from The Ugly Bar!
I really liked this book as a whole. There were some tremendously good stories in it. There was one that just completely grossed me out on multiple levels, and some that I found boring. The same as you find in any short story collection. But it was worth the read! ( )
An eclectic mix of Gothic, horror and science fiction. Most have an element of intense violence which was not really to my taste. The writing however was excellent and the stories are gripping. It is definitely a great introduction to these dark yet thought-provoking genres. ( )
Bought this when I found out it included a Tanith Lee story, "The Girl Who Broke Dracula" an excerpt from the as-yet unpublished Blood Opera IV. HOW disappointed I was to read a fairly generic Goth-Girl-Loves-A-Scarabae tale, when I had been hoping for "Ruth Totally Kicks Cain's Ass For Him." Plus, "Breaking Dracula" turned out to be accidently destroying a videotape. Sigh.
