The Year's Best Fantasy & Horror Vol. 2

0/5 ( ratings)

De doua decenii, an de an, The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror constituie standardul de calitate al literaturii fantastice. Ellen Datlow, Kelly Link si Gavin Grant duc mai departe aceasta traditie iubita de public si recompensata de critici cu numeroase premii literare.

„Daca aveti de gand sa cumparati o singura antologie de literatura fantastica, aceasta trebuie sa fie! Datlow si compania demonstreaza de peste douazeci de ani ca au un ochi perfect antrenat pentru selectarea fantasticului de cea mai inalta calitate, dar si foarte accesibil publicului larg.” Barnes & Noble

„Nu poti depasi ceva ce este deja «the best»; dar, asa cum o demonstreaza cu fiecare volum editorii acestei antologii de referinta, poti gasi noi perspective si unghiuri de abordare.” Publishers Weekly

„The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror nu este doar o antologie excelenta, ci o lectura obligatorie pentru toti cei interesati catusi de putin de proza scurta a genului. Pandantul perfect al antologiei The Year’s Best Science Fiction, editata de Gardner Dozois, ofera panorama completa a ultimelor tendinte in domeniu, iar povestirile ei minunate asigura numeroase nopti de lectura pasionata.” Dave Roy, curledup.com
