I like anthologies for three reasons. First, you can finish a story in a short time. Second, you discover new authors. Third, you discover short stories by some favorite authors. One of my favorite authors is Jane Lindskold who wrote "The Drifter" with Prudence Bledsloe, her brother, Jake, and an old west theme. This interesting tale has a unique ending. "Broch de Shlang" by Mickey Zucker Reichert features a couple who has a strange child and a snake. This one has a twisting and unusual plot. "Elizabeth and Anna's Big Adventure" by Jeanne C. Stein is short, concise, and great reading. There are others but I'll stop here as readers of anthologies should discover the stories for themselves. Suffice it to say that I liked several of the stories.
Most of the stories in this anthology are excellent which I consider a plus..there werea few I did not care for but some of that was the writing style and some just a matter of taste. All in all this one was better than most.
