Dark Stars, edited by John F.D. Taff, is a tribute to horror’s longstanding short fiction legacy, featuring 12 terrifying original stories from today's most noteworthy authors, with an introduction by bestselling author Josh Malerman and an afterword by Ramsey Campbell.
In this book, you’ll find tales of dead men walking, an insidious secret summer fling, an island harboring unspeakable power, and a dark hallway that beckons. You’ll encounter terrible monsters—both human and supernatural—and
be forever changed. The stories in Dark Stars run the gamut from traditional to modern, from dark fantasy to neo-noir, from explorations of beloved horror tropes to the unknown—possibly unknowable—threats.
It’s all in here because it’s all out there, now, in horror.
Dark Stars features all-new stories from award-winning authors and up-andcoming voices like Stephen Graham Jones, Priya Sharma, Usman T. Malik, Caroline Kepnes, John Langan, and more. Created as an homage to the 1980 classic horror
anthology Dark Forces, edited by Kirby McCauley, Dark Stars features an afterword from original contributor Ramsey Campbell—a poignant finale to this bone-chilling collection.
So far so good.
The anthology premise was what attracted me initially, so I think ithe book lives up to expectations
The narrators are all very listenable which is not always the case with some of the many short story collections I have. Nothing over done, just well read without any distraction from the stories.
I have only listened through once, which is not enough time spent with each work to say anything other than I'm looking forward to giving it a second go this evening. A good sign in itself.
A step above the pack and so far worth the wait
I'll pop back when I have spent more time with this collection and tell you what I think, for what that's worth anyway.

Disappointing!

The stories were more 'about' horror; than 'being' horror, although they were well written.
There was also an issue with there being an insufficient gap in-between the stories. One story virtually starting the moment the previous one ended. A bit too close together for comfortable listening.
There was a great array of narrators, a fascinating variety of voices. A very well produced audio experience if only the stories were not crammed so close together.
Not quite as "Bone Chilling" as advertised...
