Thanking Alex Scully and Firbolg Publishing for the opportunity to read and review Enter at Your Own Risk: Dreamscapes into Darkness.Prejudice. I don’t like it a bit, yet it happened. Before I had even read one page, I thought it would be a matter of classics I’d love and modern day stories I’d hate. Probably cos I’d have the feeling those authors were trying to copy all the brilliant works which had been written decades, even centuries ago. With in the end some sorta balance.. Do you get my drift!? I couldn’t have been more wrong! We aren’t talking about blood and gore dripping of the walls, but about sophisticated works of art which will give you the creeps on a totally different level. And perhaps there is a balance, although I prefer to call it harmony – hence I won’t be giving a detailed review of each story as I usually do with anthologies and collections. You’ve really got to see this book in it’s entirety …and enjoy every bit of it! Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. I was given this book in exchange for a review. I really liked it. Of course Gothic horror is one of my favourite genres and this anthology did not disappoint. I had read a couple of the classic stories before but it is not a chore to reread them. Of the modern stories, one of my favourites was First Horse. Some I liked more than others which is par for the course in any anthology. The illustrations were great. For lovers of Gothic horror this book is a must read. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Passions become obsessions. Obsessions become manias. And sometimes, manias turn into nightmares. What happens when one wants so badly that all else, including sanity and self, is consumed by the bonfires of desire? What happens when one achieves the dream, only to discover the nightmares lurking behind the illusions? Firbolg Publishing's fifth anthology, Enter at Your Own Risk: Dreamscapes into Darkness, explores the old adage of "Be Careful What You Wish For." Journey down wishful thinking's twisted pathways and discover what dark ends and detours await-with an introduction from Daniel Knauf, and featuring stories from D.H. Lawrence, Mary Shelley, A.M. Burrage, H.P. Lovecraft, and more Gothic masters from yesteryear and today... enter at your own risk, and be careful not to make a wish! Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

I liked the mix of classic and modern fiction, although some of the classics were real duds. My favorite piece was "Bad Things Happen." This started off the book on a high point that none of the other stories quite attained.
Overall, I could take or leave this collection. ( )
