WLW is a
recurring blog segment in which I highlight a book I have on my wish
list. Sometimes it's a new release, sometimes a beloved classic, and
sometimes it's a hidden gem.
Okay,
when I found out this anthology existed, all I needed to know was the
theme--monsters--and
I was on board. And then I saw the table of contents.
Creatures,
edited
by Paul G. Tremblay
and
John Langan,
is an anthology that collects short stories from the past three
decades, penned by some of the best authors around. Joe R. Lansdale,
Clive Barker, Sarah Langan, China Mieville, and Norman Partridge to
name but a few.
I love monsters, so it's all too easy to
place this book on my wish list. And when you've got a collection of
renowned writers with their takes on various things that go bump in
the night, all the better. I've read short stories by Langan and
Tremblay, so it should be interesting to see what they come up with
in terms of compiling an anthology like this.
Does this sound like an anthology you'd
want to read? Any other monster anthology you'd care to recommend?
