Many Bloody Returns, edited by Charlaine Harris. Ace. SHORT STORIES. Amazon customer rating: 4 stars. Kindle edition $9.99.
"Experienced genre hands ensure the high quality of 13 stories about birthdays and vampires. The opening story uses Charlaine Harris' series star Sookie Stackhouse, who, as the only nonvampire at a Dracula's birthday ball, finds herself on the menu. Dropping by a role-playing party with his brother's present, Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden must deal with deadly party crashers. A pair of vampires tracks down a serial killer in Toni L. P. Kelner's How Stella Got Her Grave Back. More chillingly, a vampire knows she must kill to live another year but is strangely reluctant in Kelly Armstrong's Twilight, and in Elaine Viets' humorous Vampire Hours, a woman deliberately chooses damnation." - Frieda Murray for Booklist.
20th Century Ghosts, by Joe Hill. HarperCollins. SHORT STORIES. Amazon customer rating: 4 stars, Kindle edition $8.76.
"The selections range from the mundane to the surreal, with a strong emphasis on the kind of horror tale perfected by Ray Bradbury, Peter Straub and Stephen King." - San Francisco Chronicle.
The Thirteenth Tale, by Diane Setterfield. Atria Books. NOVEL. Amazon customer rating: 4 1/2 stars. Kindle edition $9.59.
"Margaret Lea, a bookish loner, is summoned to the home of Vida Winter, England's most popular novelist, and commanded to write her biography. Miss Winter has been falsifying her life story and her identity for more than 60 years. Facing imminent death and feeling an unexplainable connection to Margaret, Miss Winter begins to spin a haunting, suspenseful tale of an old English estate, a devastating fire, twin girls, a governess, and a ghost...A wholly original work told in the vein of all the best gothic classics. Lovers of books about book lovers will be enthralled." - Kaite Mediatore for Booklist.
