    About this audiobook

    John Langan has, in the last few years, established himself as one of the leading voices in contemporary horror literature. Gifted with a supple and mellifluous prose style, an imagination that can conjure up clutching terrors with seeming effortlessness, and a thorough knowledge of the rich heritage of weird fiction, Langan has already garnered his share of accolades.

    This new collection of nine substantial stories includes such masterworks as Technicolor, an ingenious riff on Poe's Masque of the Red Death; How the Day Runs Down, a gripping tale of the undead; and The Shallows, a powerful tale of the Cthulhu Mythos. The capstone to the collection is a previously unpublished novella of supernatural terror, Mother of Stone.

      I picked up this book on a recommendation from some place or another - it was billed as a new style of horror, that puts humanity at the base of each story and a different take on traditional horror themes. I found most of the stories overlong. A few standout stories, The Wide Carnivorous Sky being the best. This is the only story that I found truly scary.The last thing - this book is full of typos, including repeated sentences. I found it incredibly distracting, and I don't normally notice typos.
