Summary: Enjoyed it a lot less than I thought I would.
Review: Most of these short stories are very dark and strange... Not necessarily a bad thing, depending on your taste and/or mood, I suppose. I thought I would love it overall, being a huge fan of classic rock, and of reading... But for the most part, it seemed the stories were just too "out there"! The one I found most entertaining and interesting was Pearlywhite (about some street kids and their spirit--or perhaps imaginary--guides), by Mark Laidlaw and John Shirley. But this also became increasingly weird, even freaky, as it progressed. The excerpt from Liverpool Fantasy, by Larry Kirwan, was also pretty interesting. It makes one wonder how any given decision can change life's (or lives') course(s). This is definitely a unique collection of stories, and if you enjoy dark and strange, you're sure to enjoy it!
