Book Reviews of The Second Black Book of Horror
Book Review: I'll Second That
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a story in this collection but I'm happy to admit that in all honesty mine felt like the runt of the litter.
I haven't read any horror book in a while that gripped me so much from the start. The stories seem to have an uncanny balance with each other while being very different.
Rog Pile's 'The Pit' was a special favourite, evoking something sinister and deep, with an almost indescribable overtone of pathos. I was profoundly stuck by David Sutton's 'Amygdala', which offers an image that will rest for a long and uneasy time in my head.
Having said this I have a strong feeling that I am going to immediately reread The Second Black Book of Horror and reveal that the preceding stories were not quite up to the ones I left out.
This little gem puts paid to the 'their first album was great but the second one was duff' theory.
I feel like clapping.
