From the creators of the #1 bestselling horror anthology The Box Under The Bed and its #1 bestselling sequels Dark Visions, Nightmareland, and Spellbound comes Wings & Fire, a horror anthology with 24 stories from 16 authors.

Two high school girls discover an old book that causes strange things to happen.

An excellent collection of stories

Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2021

Verified Purchase

Normally, in an anthology, there are a few stories that don’t quite deliver the punch of the others. Not so with Wings and Fire. This is one of the best collections of stories I’ve read, all of the tales polished with slick writing and clever delivery. I was riveted from start to finish.

A few of the many gems that stood out for me are the stories by Roberta Eaton Cheadle and Jessica Bakkers, especially An Unsolvable Problem or Not by Cheadle and Tasmanian Devil by Bakkers. Other stories (among many) that struck a chord were Wings of Prosperity by Heather Kindt, Dark Obsession by Susan Lamb, Mary by Adele Marie Park, and The Great Potto by M.J. Mallon. Creepy, eerie, and mesmerizing!

Tales vary between spooky, sinister, and edge-of-your-seat suspenseful, but all are brilliant,
delivering the gut punch stories of this nature should. There was one story I skimmed, the content darker than the others, but overall highly recommended! I thoroughly enjoyed this gem.

Not as good as the others in this series.

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2021

Decent stories but lacking in substance like the other series. However, the story Vigilante Justice CROSSED TOO MANY LINES!!! The story involves RAPE of not only a woman but her daughter as well who is under the age of 10! Plus graphic violence of killing her son who is also under 10. This story has no place being in this type of anthology. This one story ruined this entire anthology in its flow and story content. Very dissatisfied the editor felt the need to include this firm if horror story in a book clearly not meant for hardcore horror. This book needs a warning on it as well as the story itself

Good range of stories

Some of these stories are funny, some dark fantasy/horror, some fantasy. They are all good short reads. Like the rest of the books in this series, they are amusing.

A Wide Variety

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2021

There’s a little bit of all sorts of horror in this anthology: YA, near future dystopian, supernatural, extreme (take note), historical, non-supernatural, vampires, zombies, dark fantasy . . . and both excellent and not-so-good stories.

Adele Marie Park’s “Mary” is delightfully atmospheric, and I enjoyed both of J. Bakkers’ stories with their seasoned prose and skilled character development. MJ Mallon’s “The Great Potoo” creeped me out (in a good way!). I appreciated that Roberta Eaton Cheadle’s “Vigilante Justice” (the extreme horror story) has violence that serves the theme of the story instead of just gratuitous violence. There are other stories I liked, too.

But I didn’t enjoy all the reads. In fact, some disappointed me so much I had trouble deciding how to rate this book. Four or five stars for the excellent stories? Two or three stars for the troublesome stories? I went with four because after all, it’s an anthology. You can always skip over a story you don’t like and read the next one.

I was happy to see this anthology on Kindle Unlimited and gave it a shot. I’m glad I did!

Worth reading, with something for nearly everyone

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2021

I liked something about nearly all of the stories in this book, even some that "creeped me out." I especially like Mr. Alatorre's 2 stories, which start and end this anthology. Several of the stories were thought-provoking, as there was just enough realism to make one think that, given a few more years and just the wrong people involved, they could actually happen. As in past anthologies, some stories were reminiscent of Hitchcock or the Twilight Zone, while some in this grouping made me think of Stephen King.

I read all of the stories, liking some better than others, which is fine. However, I hated pretty much everything about Vigilante Justice. The graphic descriptions of the horrendous acts committed against 1 family seemed to go on forever, and could have been even more effective if some parts were left to the imagination. I kept hoping to learn something about why these people were targeted, who the criminals were, or even why the police did what they did. I have read my share of true crime books that also have very disturbing descriptions of horrible violence ( think In Cold Blood or Helter Skelter). But, those descriptions were a part of the bigger story. In Vigilante Justice, I felt as if the whole point of the story was to see how horrible the violence could get, and when the author was unable to do anything else, the story was ended with just a couple of paragraphs. This one story kept me from giving the anthology 5 stars. I don't need to live every story, but I think that, especially with so much seemingly senseless violence going on in our country, we have no business promoting it in any way.

Thriller or Thought-provoking?

Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2021

This book is an anthology of 24 short stories, most of which are very reminiscent of “Twilight Zone” or “Alfred Hitchcock Presents”. The 16 authors are quite talented, but many of the stories offer little more than thriller value. That is very unfortunate.

There are a few exceptions, however. “An Unsolvable Problem or Not” by R. E. Cheadle speaks of the near future when all lower level jobs will be eliminated and non-superstar contributors to society will be slowly culled by benign neglect. It lends some real food for thought.

“Abraham’s Theory on the Paradigm of Choice…”by J. Bakkers was another thought-provoker. What if one chose one’s destiny by the color of the ball that he or she selected at age 18 months? What would then constitute a successful life? What color would we have chosen? And why?

“The Killer Wolf…”by A. Turner offered an interesting take on werewolves, albeit more fantasical than real. Nevertheless, the dialog between a werewolf and a ‘normie’ was intriguing.

“The Classics” by C. Valentor, again a little more fanstasical than genuinely supernatural, gave an unusual twist to the world of fiction and the role it plays in an avid reader’s life.

If one seeks an anthology of stories to thrill, this will answer. But if one seeks a thoughtful challenge, only some meet that grade.

I am a fan of short stories - I love the skill necessary to give a satisfying story in a few words. This anthology delivers in almost every story and each piece - under the theme of Wings & Fire - offers excellent horror glimpses, from full on to subtle.
