Not The Usual..., April 2 2003
This review is from: Hot Blood Xi (Paperback)
This book was better than the last but in my opinion, it didn't live up to what I normally expect from the "Hot Blood" series. The collection of short stories managed to keep my attention but failed to keep me up at night. *laugh

More of a Literary "Cold Shower" than Steamy Literature, Mar 3 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Hot Blood Xi (Paperback)
The lastest collection of stories by authors Gelb and Garrett is a real mixed-bag of so-called erotic horror stories. The anthology begins with three or four stories detailing the deviant side of sexual horror. Hardly anything to get your pulse racing.
These stories are followed by a short group of stories that, in my mind, could more aptly be called erotic horror as these stories dwell upon themes based on romantic relationships, rather than deviant behavior. From this point on, the stories fall into the just plain weird category.
If you're a fan of the earlier books in the original series, I doubt that you'll find this collection to be a worthwhile addition to your library.

Hotter by the Story, Feb 25 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Hot Blood Xi (Paperback)
This new anthology from Jeff Gelb and Michael Garrett stands right up there with the others in this series of erotic horror. Fatal Attraction fields a great line up of award winning pros and new names in the horror genre. The stories run the gamit from fetishes to shooting stars with a nice selection of blood and bodily fluids to keep things lubed up. These stories will keep coming back around to haunt your thoughts and pique your imagination as you contemplate new ways to spice up your own sex life.
New publisher Kensington Books has made an attractive book that will stand up nicely with the others in this horrifically steamy series.
