2.0 out of 5 stars Good concept not carried out as well as possible, Jun 24 1998

Ce commentaire est de: Young Blood (Paperback)
All of these stories were written before the author's 30th birthday, the point being to prove that you don't have to be old to contribute good stuff. The collection includes stories from both older or deceased authors as well as new previously unpublished authors. The collection started off kind of weak and didn't have quite as many gems as I expected. I was kind of amazed at how many of the stories were pretty short. Maybe it was their brevity or maybe the writing itself, but the stories were just not as good as I expected. However I have listed the ones I did like below.

"The Mangler" by Stephen King - Early King but still good stuff, some might even say better than some of his current offerings

"Little Black Bags" by Clark Perry - Everything is not as it seems

"Armadillo Village" by Terry Campbell - An old horror story theme that proves to still be very good

This was a great short story collection-Poppy Z. Brite's story was incredibly disturbing. One of the best stories is Lorelei Shannon's-her story of two people who would do ANYTHING for each other was touching, in a violent way. This short story collection proves that young authors can hold their own against the old-guy establishment!
