FRESH FEAR: Contemporary Horror is a collection of horror from some of the genre's best writers of dark fiction. This collection has no central theme other than the story's ability to scare the hell out of the reader! Tales steeped in psychological horror sit alongside visions of strange worlds and inner landscapes drenched in blood. 'Quiet horror' sits comfortably next to more visceral portrayals of the monsters that lurk deep within the human heart. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, famously once said, "where there is no imagination there is no horror" - the horror expressed by the authors in Fresh Fear show that imagination is indeed tantamount to excellent story-telling. Prepare yourself for 28 tales of terror-inducing fiction that will have you checking the locks on every door and window of your abode!

In Fresh Fear you will come across monsters in all forms, from ghosts and demons to monsters who are all to human. .A great anthology put together by William Cook. Has stories from some writers I was familiar with as well as some I'll be looking for in the future. A few of these stories are really great, most are very good, only a few left me cold. So curl up somewhere cozy and enjoy this solid 4 star read.
