REVIEW:
Short Urban Fantasy stories are a joy for the modern commuter. It’s a great way to not only try authors you’ve either not heard of before or been unsure to try because of the tight finances and a wonderful way to have something a little different every few pages.
The stories within are wonderfully woven with each giving the reader something take away from their reading session. And whilst everyone will have their own favourite (my own was Adam Nevills) all round will generate something that you will love with each conclusion. All round a great piece of fun and definitely something to share with the house bookworm if they love UF. Magic.

I'm about halfway through the collection right now. A few weaker stories early on, but it really hit its stride.
