If you are looking
for some really great short stories, Dark Delicacies is the book you
need to buy. Out of the 19 short stories in this book, I think there
were maybe two I didn't really care for. Some really phenomenal
writers contributed to this book such as Clive Barker, Ramsey
Campbell, Ray Bradbury, Whitley Strieber, Richard Laymon, and more.
You can't go wrong buying this anthology with names like these
included.
The stories cover
a variety of different extremes of horror. Bradbury's THE REINCARNATE
was actually kind of a sad tale. Whitley Strieber created a religious
nightmare of a world in KADDISH. Rick Pickman's DARK DELICACIES OF
THE DEAD had me laughing. William F. Nolen wrote a pretty good tale
with DEPOMPA. Clive Barker's HAECKEL'S TALE was the last story
included in this anthology, and probably one of the best. I had
actually seen this story on an episode of Masters of Horror. There
are many other great stories included in this anthology besides the
ones I mentioned above.
I highly recommend
you buy this anthology!!
