      The Drifter - Jane Lindskold. Fairly average story about a Sister who needs to find her brother before he causes more trouble.

      Our Lady of the Vampires - Nancy Holder. An orphanage during the depression has an interesting group of protectors. I liked it.

      Best Friends - Lilith Saintcrow. A stepfather may, or may not be, a vampire. Hijinks occurs. I quite enjoyed this story.

      Elizabeth and Anna's Big Adventure - Jeanne C. Stein. Home invasion, saved by the babysitter. Its a cute, fairly average story.

      Lupercalia - Anton Stout. I like it. God of Love gets beat up by the woman he scorned.

      Murder She Workshopped - Kristine Kathryn Rusch. Death comes to a book writing workshop. Fairly standard story.

      Heart of Ash - Jim C. Hines. Nymph is whate the people she bonds to wants, and revenge is all she can have when her last love gets killed. Another story that I enjoyed reading.

      Jiang Shi - Elizabeth A. Vaughan. A woman is surprised to find out she has is the dragon, wise one elder of an ancient Chinese Mythology. The story is a bit all over the place and hard to follow.

      No Matter Where You Go - Tanya Huff. I've read the series with these characters. This a short story set in that world.

      Signed in Blood - P.R. Frost. I liked this one. A Pookah is trapped in a wold not his own.

      Broch De Shlang - Mickey Zucker Reichert. This is the story that made this collection a 3 to a 2.5. This story is absolutely despicable, and should not have been written. A child with no brain is used as sacrifice to break a curse.

      The Wooly Mountains - Alexander B. Potter. A supernatural creature is stirring up trouble in Vermont. I would actually read longer stories in this universe. This is my favorite story in the collection.

      Invasive Species - Nina Kiriki Hoffman. The only Science Fiction story in the bunch. An exterminator needs to rid a spaceship of metal eating mites, only to find something much bigger.

      More feminist than I expected.
    • 3/5
      This book has a great title, doesn't it? It does. Unfortunately, the title is the best part of the book. I love good short stories, but these stories are mostly on the mediocre side.
