SHADOW MASTERS is “the very best kind of horror anthology”
Amazon reader Warren Schwartz has posted a five-star review of SHADOW MASTERS: AN ANTHOLOGY FROM THE HORROR ZINE, which features my short story, “The People Eaters”:
As a fan of horror, I always look for the very best kind of horror to read. I love anthologies and can sit and read them all day. However, in order for me to do that, they must be the very best kind of horror anthologies, and with SHADOW MASTERS, I have found the very best kind of horror anthology.
I have read the stories, and I must say, they are truly terrifying tales. One of my favorites is “The End Of The Trail” by Bentley Little because it leaves so many questions unanswered, which only makes the story that much more unsettling. I also really enjoyed the first story “The Thing That Was Not There” because it shows that imagination can be deadly if you let it consume you.
I can’t wait to read more stories from the Horror Zine and hope that they can keep giving the world more good quality horror stories for years to come.
