Re: New Horror Books

Two new anthologies I recommend highly:



(edited by Jack Dann and Nick Gevers)



(edited by Ellen Datlow)


Ghosts by Gaslight offers modern spins on the Victorian/Edwardian ghostly tale; contributors include Peter S. Beagle, Gene Wolfe, Terry Dowling, Lucius Shepard, and Robert Silverberg. Blood and Other Cravings features stories of vampires and vampirism, whether they feed on blood or stranger things; contributors include Barbara Roden, Steve Rasnic Tem, Melanie Tem, Steve Duffy, Lisa Tuttle, Michael Cisco, and (with a reprint) Reggie Oliver. Margo Lanagan, John Langan, and Laird Barron have stories in both anthologies. My review of Blood and Other Cravings is here, and my review of Ghosts by Gaslight is here.

Noonday Stars: a blog about horror fiction. Recent content includes essay on the new edition of Ligotti's The Agonizing Resurrection of Victor Frankenstein and Other Gothic Tales.
