From Publishers Weekly
This is the second in a series devoted to showcasing the work of fantasy and horror writers. The almost arbitrary bringing together of three disparate talents in one volume may be a questionable idea, but in this case it worksGrant has produced an enjoyable collection. David Morrell, best known for creating the character Rambo in his novel First Blood, contributes three stories, of which the best, "Mumbo Jumbo," depicts a football player whose team's success seems to depend on the coach's voodoo worship. Joseph Payne Brennan is represented by five tales, including "Starlock Street," in which an antiquarian learns how unpleasant retreat into a more genteel time and place can be. Karl Edward Wagner has three stories; "Shrapnel" is a deft chiller with a vision of Hell as an auto graveyard. November
