I started reading this last night, but I only got as far as the first story, 'The Animator's House', which is both the best and the worst kind of horror story to read before switching off the light, because it seriously creeped me out. I've read a couple of the others already - 'What Water Reveals' is especially good, I recall - but I wondered if anyone else has read this collection and would care to venture an opinion ... |

I've shared a couple of ToCs with Golanski, and the tales of his I've read have been very good. |

I enjoyed 'Weird Furka' - is it included in the collection? |

It is indeed. There are eleven stories, five previously published and six originals, a great ratio for any collection. The writing reminds me a bit of Paul Tremblay's; enigmatic and disturbing (to shamelessly borrow from one of the blurbs on the back of the book). |
