Here Be Monsters - An Anthology of Monster TalesBy M.T. Murphy, S.M. Reine, India Drummond, Anabel Portillo, Jeremy C. Shipp, Samantha Anderson, and Sara Reinke.(Review by Saewod Tice - Great Minds Thinking Aloud Literary Community)Eight tales of vampires, werewolves, demons, zombies, and other horrors:M.T. Murphy - Blackmail.- A nice twist in a familiar tale.S.M. Reine - Something Wrong.- A simple, beautifully written horror.India Drummond - The Reaver.- A fresh tale with a ghoulishly karmic finish.Anabel Portillo - Lux.- A tale I wish was a full novel, just to get more detail to the horrors created.Jeremy C. Shipp - Figs.- An unexpected climax and new meaning to justice.Samantha Anderson - Deals and Demons.- Good versus Evil has a new twist.Sara Reinke - Periphery People.- Hauntingly different and `campfire' story worthy.M.T. Murphy - Spider Bag.- Perhaps my fear of spiders are the reason this shook me, but it may also be the actual discovery of what the spider bag is that did me in.It's Halloween-time and this collection of horror shorts was fun for this time of the year.  I liked a couple of the stories over the others, but overall they were a pretty twisted read.  Definitely recommended for a couple quick horrific reads.Great Minds Thinking Aloud Rating - 3.5/5 RavensRecommended Ages - 17+Available on Amazon & right now its FREE.
