2002-07-08 - Decent. A few gems.
The best stories in NIGHT SCREAMS are:"Trolls" by Christopher Fahy "Good Vibrations" by Richard Laymon "The Wringer" by F. Paul Wilson At least half of the stories are good. Some other good stories: The dripping by David Morrell The Tulsa Experience by Lawrence Block Small deaths by Charles de Lint White lightning by Al Sarrantonio Hitman by Rick Hautala And eight rabid pigs by David Gerrold. Corpse carnival by Ray Bradbury I was a little disappointed by: "A season of change" by Richard T. Chizmar "Redemption" by Jack Ketchum "Beasts in Buildings, Turning 'Round" by J.N. Williamson "The book of blood" by Clive Barker The only bad thing about Cliver Barker's story is that it is so short. It's too short to warrant having Barker's name on the cover. Lawrence Block's story "The Tulsa Experience" starts out slow but the payoff is worth it. F. Paul Wilson's story "The Wringer" features Repairman Jack. The stories by Christopher Fahy and Richard Laymon are my favorites. Check out some of their novels too. I suggest: NIGHTFLYER and THE LYSSA SYNDROME by Christopher Fahy AMONG THE MISSING by Richard Laymon
