The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror: Ninth Annual Collection

The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror: Ninth Annual Collection

Scott Bradfield
4/5 ( ratings)
This superb anthology is as valuable for its detailed summations of horror and fantasy in 1995 , as for the 35 stories and 9 poems. Also useful for its exploration of the crossover genre known as "dark fantasy." Noteworthy authors include Peter S. Beagle, Ursula Le Guin, Stephen King, Lucy Taylor, Steve Rasnic Tem, Tanith Lee, A. S. Byatt, David J. Schow, and Joyce Carol Oates.
