Overview

Elves aren’t always creatures of the light.

Some elves thrive in the darkness, stalking their unwary victims for their own twisted pleasure. Sometimes they hunt and kill for the mere thrill. Sometimes their motives are beyond all human understanding.

 

Inside this anthology you will find elven assassins, kidnappers, and conspirators. You will find elves who are who are reaching from beyond the grave and those who are throwing away the heritage of their wood-addled brethren. And you will find human beings who are struggling to survive as they find themselves caught up in the games that Sidhe play.

In “Bad Company” by K. D. Wentworth, a New York cop must survive a harrowing night in Central Park, a land that opens up into the realm of the fey.

In “Juniper” by Elaine Cunningham, an aging Strega battles to save the life of a child from linchetto, night elves feared as bringers of nightmares.

In “Rotten Blood” by Murray Leeder, a deranged elf seeks to inflict a plague upon his people.

In “Celebrant” by Gerard Daniel Houarner, a grieving widower becomes the plaything of a seductive elf.

    Good depth, great writing, liked it a lot.

    I got this book pretty much only because I saw that the author of Poison Elves wrote the intro. And he did the expected great job with it. But, man, talk about turning elf stories on their collective heads! Some crazy stuff in this book, and I didn¿t put it down very often. Wasn¿t a dud in the bunch, which is pretty rare for anthologies. Some pretty good writing from names that I recognized, I found some authors here that are really pretty impressive and I have never heard of them before. Its not too often that I write these reviews, and I usually only do it when I¿m peeved about forking out my hard earned sheckles for stuff that is poorly rendered or boring, but this one was actually worth the money and the read.

    Excellent Book

    I thoroughly enjoyed this collection of works. I especially liked the story by Erin Mackay and I hope to read more of her works. Highly recommended!
