I was a big fan of One Buck Horror volume one, and number two may just raise the bar. On the whole, these stories play more to my horror leanings, being more visceral and nasty than most of the stories in volume one. "Holes" reminded me of vintage King, with an outlandish premise that totally works. "Beastie" is highly original, and while it left me a little confused, the execution is flawless and engaging. "3 Monkeys" is a wickedly entertaining piece from across the pond, and "Ellen Easterling" is an emotional roller coaster, by turns beautiful, horrible and tragic. Overall a great collection.
