What I'm Reading: The Rack
Synopsis: “It’s 1980 and you have three crisp dollar bills in your pocket. You run to the drugstore, or maybe the supermarket, because you know THE RACK will be there, waiting... that spinning wire rack, tempting you with the latest and best horror paperbacks and their lurid covers.”
My take: The table of contents alone is worth an award—Stephen King, Johnny Compton, Cynthia Pelayo, Errick Nunnally, Gwendolyn Kiste, and the list goes on. Every story in this anthology is a winner. Some of my favorites are “Fuzzy Slippers,” by Jeff Strand, “Ursa Diruo,” by Kristin Dearborn, and “Other Things Have Happened,” by Ronald Malfi.
