But, I find, there are always the exception to the rules, and the one good thing about anthologies is it can usually give you a good idea about the writing style of various authors, a sample if you will before you dive into all of their books. Sometimes it is an accurate sample, and sometimes it isnt. <br /><br />Great job reviewing this book--I enjoyed reading both your comments on each story. Sometimes I think that quick "reviews" like that, when worded carefully, can tell a potential reader more than even the 500 word reviews can. :D <br /><br />Enjoy!<br />TBQThe_Book_Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08530088066451745366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-37350058239525259802011-09-21T23:21:35.919+03:002011-09-21T23:21:35.919+03:00Karen
