Editorial Reviews

VOYA
Journeys are the unifying theme in this anthology of sixteen paranormal stories edited by Melissa Marr (Wicked Lovely, HarperCollins, 2007/VOYA June 2007) and Kelley Armstrong (The Summoning, HarperCollins, 2008/VOYA August 2008). Contributions from familiar names include Carrie Ryan's dystopic "Scenic Route"—the suspense and violence of which will please fans of The Forest of Hands and Teeth (Random House, 2010)—and Kami Garcia's "Red Run," whose ghost-story-with-a-twist begs to be told out loud. Jeri Smith-Ready's many-layered "Bridge" is told in verse, while Sarah Rees Brennan offers a self-deprecating showbiz take on vampires' popularity in "Let's Get This Undead Show on the Road." Some short stories can function as cliffhanging first chapters, while others are entire compressed novels, and Marr and Armstrong strike a good balance between the two types. Multiple characters and lack of exposition may trip up some readers, but the lure of favorite authors, characters, and worlds should be enough to overcome this. Fans of the paranormal will discover a rich primer of the genre's current offerings, from sweeping romance to grisly zombies, including some details that will date the book quickly (Ke$ha, time travel to the year 2011). Girls are more likely to appreciate the all-female author lineup and pink-tinted cover, but teens who enjoy story collections such as Vivian Vande Velde's All Hallow's Eve: 13 Stories (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2006/VOYA December 2006) will want to take note, as will libraries where short stories circulate well. Reviewer: Rebecca O'Neil
Kirkus Reviews

A solid collection of stories that prove that all any supernatural creature wants to do is date or eat teenage protagonists.

These short stories are loosely connected by a very openly interpreted journey motif.Psychics, genies, angels and gargoyles join fairies and vampires to terrorize and romance their fellow characters. The diversity in authors allows for the sometimes-neglected horror implied in paranormal stories to be spotlighted, as in Carrie Ryan's zombie thriller, "Scenic Route," and Jennifer Lynn Barnes's "The Third Kind," about sisters with unavoidable compulsions. Many of the authors base their stories in the existing worlds of their other novels—luckily, most of these standalones work, though not all shake off that teaser taste. Sarah Rees Brennan's "Let's Get This Undead Show on the Road" follows a vampire in a boy-band and stands out with its perfect blend of snark and sincerity. It's followed in a one-two punch by Jeri Smith-Ready's intense and earnest "Bridge." While not every story's as strong as those (some are downright forgettable), in a buffet of so many flavors readers can always skip to the next story with a good chance of finding something more to their liking.

This collection is ideal as a sampler tray for paranormal readers looking to pick up new authors to follow or to further explore the fictional worlds they already know. (about the authors) (Paranormal. 13-18)

    Very Good Anthology -- I read them all!

    Here are the stories contained in this anthology which all take some form of a detour. I ran out of room, so some aren't complete!

    Giovanni's Farewell by Claudia Gray

    This will leave you wanting more: twins develop supernatural powers while in Rome and have an adventure.

    Scenic Route by Carrie Ryan

    You will be extremely familiar with the post apocalyptic world here if you have read Carrie's previous zombie books. This one is just as creepy and follows two sisters who are barricaded in a remote home and are found by brothers who get quite a surprise by the older sister.

    IV League by Margaret Stohl

    Southern Gothic moves to the Northeast as a vampire tries to attend Harvard with her "normal" friend.

    Red Run by Kami Garcia

    Seriously, seriously creepy. A girl is searching for her boyfriend and comes face to face with a ghost who is haunting Red Run Road. The story has a nice and unexpected twist when the ghost turns out to be something else.

    Things About Love by Jackson Pearce

    Something new! This is a nice little romance with a twist that is told from the point of view of a genie and the boy she is sent to protect. I adored this sweet story.

    Niederwald by Rachel Vincent

    Ahhh, yes! Sabine and Emma take a road trip from Soul Screamers. Sabine is one of my favorite characters and her bad attitude is almost put in the background in this story. A must read for fans of the series since a bit more about Kaylee is revealed.

    A Mortal Winter King by Melissa Marr

    Donia and Keenan take a vacation! They try to make it normal, but of course that doesn't work out when Donia tries to be human again. This left me wanting more.

    Facing Facts by Kelley Armstrong

    I haven't read the last book in the series with Chloe but this one brings out a bit more of Derek and explains what happens to Tori when she finds out what happened to her father.



    Let's Get This Undead Show on the Road by Sarah Rees Brennan

    ADORED this one! I am a huge fan so to read more words by Sarah Ress Brennan is a pleasure. This one follows a boy band with a vampire lead singer and the corrupt manager that treats him like a second class citizen.

    Bridge by Jeri Smith-Ready

    The first story I immediately turned to was Jeri Smith Ready's Bridge where Logan contacts his brother, who is deeply depressed and considering suicide since he feels responsible in part for Logan's death. The story is told in free verse which is amazing considering the effort it takes to contain a lot of thought in so few words. This is a must read for any Shade/Shift fan.

    Skin Contact by Kimberly Derting

    I haven't read this series yet, but the story was a nice start for me. I will have to go back and check this one out.


    Leaving by Ally Condie

    I liked this one as well. I haven't read anything by her before and this was a nice introduction.

    At the Late Night, Double Feature, Picture Show by Jessica Verday

    Anyone who can take girl scouts and make them into cannibals, a van full of cross dressing vampires and evil ghosts, well, that has my vote! This one is very humorous and amazingly action packed for a quick read. I want more!

    Gargouille by Mary E. Pearson

    A new type of love story for me in which gargoyles are the main feature. This is a very sweet story about a girl gargoyle who find love.

    The Third Kind by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

    Jess' sister Krissy needs to follow her impulses even if that means
