And wasn't a fan, one or two of the stories were entertaining but most felt extra long winded for no reason, had no real revelation or shock or even end to the stories that we're anything close to satisfying. It more felt like an assortment of random chapters from various other more interesting novels...

Great title and Clive cover, entertaining stories. Turn the lights out if you dare, and enter a darkling world.....
