“Guran has edited/curated a few dozen anthologies over the years, along with annual collections of The Year’s Best Dark Fantasy & Horror. I wasn’t sure what to expect other than the seemingly obvious – a collection of scary stories personally chosen by Guran. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that I got that and so much more.
All the authors featured in this anthology are talented and offer a mix of creepy, eerie, dark, disturbing, surreal, and troublesome narratives. On the other hand, while dark, I found some of them to be a bit comforting as well. Usually I’m hesitant to read short stories because they often offer no closure and leave the reader wanting more. While the stories featured in The Year’s Best Dark Fantasy & Horror, Vol. 1 are no exception, I’m so glad I had the opportunity to read this book.
