Generally enjoyed

I purchased this audio book to get a taste of some authors which had been recommended to me (of all the authors included in the compilation I have never read any other books by them).

I enjoyed all the stories in this compilation, although from personal taste I liked some better than others.

Nice work

This is a very nice compilation of stories that compliment each other well. I enjoyed how each of the authors stories were in the same times period and actually crossed over one another to create a complete picture and world.

I liked it! But!!!

The Jane Yellowrock series by Faith Hunter is my favorite! But whoever this woman is who narrated the store is horrible and her Jane voice made me want to cry.

Butcher saves the day

some good stories some just okay but the outstanding story by Jim butcher was worth the time and money

Short stories.

This book contains several fascinating short stories, some better than others. But would definitely recommend this to friends.

A Wonderful Collection

This is a book I’ve gone back to again and again. Excellent narration and stories from old favorite and new favorite authors. When I’m in the mood for something relaxing and familiar this is one that doesn’t get old and stale.
There aren’t too many anthologies that I’ve listened to where I can honestly state that every story is worth listening to repeatedly but this is one. Well worth the credit.

Excacly what I needed!

This was my first book of shorts with multoliple authers and it was excacly what I needed. I have been stugling to fine a new book searies to get into and now I have so many I know I'm gonna love.

I wanted to like it...

Given that this is a collection of short stories I anticipated that I may not connect with every story but that there would be a few to stand out. Unfortunately, many of the stories had slow pacing or were narrated poorly.

good grouping of stories

bummed when it was complete. it is a good intro to a variety of authors and styles

Good mix of great authors

Patricia Briggs, Jim Butcher, Rachel Caine, Caren Chance, PN Elrod, Charlaine Harris....et al. did a fine job of mixing up stories. (No Sookie from Charlaine, but I liked it). Anthologies offer a person a chance to hear new authors, and old authors writing different styles. I enjoyed 90% of this and I do with most para normal anthologies. Don't expect the same old thing and allow yourself to enjoy.
