After Sundown
ByPublisher Description
NOMINATED FOR A SHIRLEY JACKSON AWARD AND BRITISH FANTASY AWARD
"This rich and masterful collection of horror highlights both up-and-coming and established authors in an interesting twist on the standard anthology [...] Highly recommended for longstanding horror fans and those readers who may not think horror is for them. There is something for everyone in this one." — Booklist
This new anthology contains 20 original horror stories, 16 of which have been commissioned from some of the top names in the genre, and 4 of which have been selected from the 100s of stories sent to Flame Tree during a 2-week open submissions window. It is the first of what will hopefully become an annual, non-themed horror anthology of entirely original stories, showcasing the very best short fiction that the genre has to offer.

“A collection of 20 short horror stories - After Sundown, is written by some of the great names in the horror genre! As is the case with most of anthologies, it was all over the place for me. None of the story was mind blowing, but I did like few of them. Few of my favourites were Creeping Ivy, It doesn't feel right, The Importance of Oral Hygiene & Murder Box. The rest were ether underdeveloped or not good at all.
Overall, It was underwhelming but there were few hidden gems and few I would prefer to be written as full book rather than a short story.
2.75 (round off 3 Stars)
***Got the e-arc from Netgalley for an honest review***”

“3 Stars - ebook - hmm a LOT of duds in this one unfortunately. See book activity for each story breakdown. My favourites however were probably Butterfly Island by CJ Tudor, Bokeh by Thana Niveau and Murder Board by Grady Hendrix.”
