“The Mammoth Book of Jack the Ripper Stories really is mammoth. With nearly forty stories about the mysterious serial killer, this book had it's ups and downs. Some stories were interesting and but frustratingly short, which is probably why I hardly ever read short story collections. Some stories were down right boring, and I have to admit, I skipped a few of them after only a few sentences. Notable mentions include Bertie by Barbara Nadel, which immerses you in the 1800's and The Ripper Legacy by John Moralee, which is a modern retelling of the fear and trepidation the killer inspired. Unfortunately, the bad stories outweighed the good, making this a below average read.”
