This is an anthology containing 17 horror stories. 17 stories to creep you out, raise the hair on the back of your neck and/or make your skin crawl.

Remind me again why I read this stuff? Horror isn't my usual pick of genre because it leads me to think of Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Saw and Friday the 13th, all movies that, to me, are just gorefests with no real plot or spine chilling creep out factor. The same old tripe over and over again, ad nauseum. Give me Silence of the Lambs though and I'll watch and never eat fava beans without thinking of Hannibal Lecter. *shudder*

The stories in this anthology are not like the same-ol'-same-ol' movies I mentioned. These are the kinds of stories that give you the creeps. And better yet, there are 17 of them all reminding me of something I could have easily watched on the old Twilight Zone series. They just don't make shows like that anymore. *sigh* All-in-all a great anthology.

Vol. 1 of "The Endlands" is a delight for lovers of the weird side of story-telling. The creator of this anthology is said to have been a fan of Rod Serling and The Twilight Zone, and that is definitely obvious in the story choices. Featuring short stories about everything from strange creatures masquerading as politicians to body-snatching demons, from cannibals to flying whales (yes, you heard me right!), the stories included in this anthology are sure to include something to please any lover of horror fiction or the macabre. The story settings range from fantasy, science fiction, near-future dystopianism, magical reality and to the just plain weird.

The writing is nicely done - it is obvious that each of the authors has experience and talent in spades. I tried - oh how I tried! - to read it slowly, to savor the stories, but I kept finding myself shredding through the virtual pages as fast as I could, eager to find the twist that would make this story stand out, excited to find what disturbing item I would find on the next page, in the next story. I highly recommend this book, full of wonderfully disturbing little gems of stories. Don't miss it!
Normally shorts stories aren't my favorite type as I feel like their missing something, but with horror stories it doesn't happen so much. Here's a mini summary about each story and an overall opinion at the end.

Room 422 (Patrick Greene)

A man in a hospital waiting to give birth to their baby, or perhaps not.

This story was great although short, when I read the last sentence I thought wow that would

be a great book on it's own.

A Night in Polidoria (Cristin Martin)

Polidoria is a hunted town, the people who live there don't go out after dark, they eat

a lot of garlic and meals were blessed by a priest. The nails in their walls are made of

silver and hidden they have bottles of holly water and wooden stakes.

This is the home of Diana, a seventeen year old girl who's world is about to turn upside down.

This story was interesting, although Diana is a bit to trusting, you would of thought that

living where she does she would be less trusting.

Flying Fish (David Stubblefield)

Okay so flying wales in this one )

It was interesting to read an intriguing as I wondered what would actually happen if Whales

somehow started flying.

Limbo, Population 458 (Vincent Hobbes)

A husband and a wife travelling on the road. The wife needs to use the bathroom and they

stumble upon a quiet old town. Maybe to quiet.

It was a really good story, I can't say much about it without giving anything away. But really

creepy.

Finders Keepers (Janelle Garcia)

Beth works for the lost and found in Hotel Sunny Days.

Okay so I wont give anything more away, truthfully I didn't think much of this story. I mean it

was gory and unsettling but I think it was missing a plot. Although it's well written.

Loose Ends (Craig Wessel)

A very short story about a man named Cain. Or not.

To Read or Not to Read (Vincent Hobbes)

Shelby is a young woman who enters a bookshop, but not everything is what it seems.

My favorite, I really wanted to be in that bookshop and I couldn't see why it was horror

until I read the end that is.

Phases of Normal (Tamara Wilhite)

This one was a bit complicated to follow for a short story, as it's about genetics and how to

make the perfect human.

Propaganda (Nathan Palmer)

At first this seemed like a paranormal story, as the author describes a young soldier on his way

to kill some monsters. Or not?

King of the Jungle, (Jordan Benoit)

A hunter goes to the forest to find a man eating monster, only to find much more.

The Hour of the Time (Vincent Hobbes)

About a man who hates being late.

Thanksgiving (Jarius Reddy)

A feast for thanksgiving involving human clones? Spooky

Into the small hours (Patrick Greene)

This one was interesting, It was about a man staying in a hotel who has a night visitor.

The Dragon of Delinar (Vincent Hobbes)

The Kingdom of Delinar lives in peace for now.

The best BBQ in the Interstate (Jennifer Chapman)

Henry is a trucker and on a trip he picks up Steve who promises to show him the best barbecue in the interstate.

Now this one was very creepy and likely to give you nightmares next time you go to a barbecue.

Glass Prison (Christina Estabrook)

Sarah and Jack live in a old house. But soon Sarah starts seeing shadows.

A really good story.

They (Vincent Hobbes)

Mike, Brian, Kelly and Taylor are on the way to vacation, but a storm makes them get lost.

Overall I really enjoyed this book as it had fantastic authors and stories.
