Recenzii
Praise for the first two books in the series:
"This rich and masterful collection of horror highlights both up-and-coming and established authors in an interesting twist on the standard anthology [...] Highly recommended for longstanding horror fans and those readers who may not think horror is for them. There is something for everyone in this one." — Booklist
"This is a short story collection that does exactly what it sets out to, delight and scare. With stories from well-known authors in the genre as well as a few from emerging voices, After Sundown has something for everyone. Highly recommended." — The British Fantasy Society
"An entertaining, slickly written, mainstream, fun, something-for-every-horror-fan anthology.” — HorrorTree
“Beautifully written pieces that lean into the intuitive and fantastic.” — Publishers Weekly
“There’s a refreshing lack of pretentiousness about these stories. The authors span several continents so there’s a decent array of themes and styles. Each tale had a very distinct voice, with a superb variety that perfectly illustrates what a broad church the genre covers. I had a blast reading this book. It really has reinvigorated my interest in the horror genre.” — Stephen Bacon, author & critic
"There is no end to the talent Mark Morris has brought together here. Fans of the genre will be pleased to see new work from such favorites as Nathan Ballingrud and Gemma Files, among others. So if you’re ready for a long fall night, pick up a copy of this massive anthology and fall into the mysterious worlds Beyond the Veil." — Phantastiqa
“I'm impressed with the imagination and variety coming from the writers. Beyond the Veil, from Flame Tree Press, is another happy clump of ickiness...and I mean that in a good way.” — The Happy Horror Writer
"Each story is excellent and everyone is as good as the last but some will stick out as a favourite due to taste but if you look at this extremely well put together anthology, they all shine excellently. Excellent award winning anthology that has something for everybody."
"That lockdown-era catalogue of fears and cognitive disruptions finds its purest form in several of the stories, most effectively in Adam Nevill’s “Rise Up Together” and “The Nine of Diamonds” by Carole Johnstone. “Rise Up Together” reimagines the horror of forced confinement by implacable authority figures through a grotesquely comic conceit of age triumphing over youth. Johnstone’s story is a seemingly more subdued tale of economic desperation and corporate malfeasance that only shows its teeth in a well-earned surprise ending. A sense of loss pervades the entire collection; as writers continue to process the pandemic’s fallout, more such tales are bound to find their way into print."
"A sublime and sinister treat, delightfully scary, we cannot recommend this enough."
