I have to begin with I am not usually a fan of short story horror anthologies. They really have to jump out and grab me really quick. Well, kudos to Dawn Shea half of D&T Publishing LLC you busted your bottom, and you hooked me with this read! I even plan to read the previous two installments of ABC’s of Terror. I have to say Dawn put together a stellar line up of authors for this twenty-six story anthology! Here is the line up.
Victor J. Beowulf
Rachel Boucher
Tara Loscano
Matthew Clarke
Chris Bonner
Gary McDonough
Chuck Knight
Dawn DeBraal
Galina Trefel
Dawn Shea
Dale Parnell
N.M. Brown
Steve Thompson
Hillary Dodge
Ruthann Jagge
Patrick C. Harrison III (PC3/ 1/3 Cerberus)
Mark Young
Lance Dale
Trisha McKee
M. Ennenbach (1/3 Cerberus)
Christo
R.F. Blackstone
Chris Miller (1/3 Cerberus- yes, the whole gang is here)
John Cady
David Green
As someone is bound to notice, no I can count, one author does have two stories. Which are both fantastic! Throughout this entire anthology you will be entertained by cursed/haunted objects, or things left behind. I was originally going to pick a top five from the anthology, but I didn’t have a single complaint. That is saying a lot from someone who doesn’t really care for short story anthologies, but Dawn only has quality stories in here. I promise you it is a fun ride! Not to mention, some authors are seasoned, some are new, and some simply new to me. Also, it is absolutely necessary to mention that Cerberus as a whole is here! Those who are unaware that would be Patrick C. Harrison III (PC3), M. Ennenbach, and Chris Miller. They have a three novella book titled Cerberus Rising, and I was sold after reading this. I have read a bit from some of these authors, and they are very talented and need to be checked out if you have not yet. All three have entries in DHP’s Splatter Western Series as well!
Now, I know I mentioned those three in particular, but I could praise each and every author for their work contributed to ABC’s of Terror Vol. III. However, that would take a while, and I have rambled enough. The theme of all the stories as stated center around cursed or haunted objects. These tales are fun, somewhat creepy, and very creative. I will say the letter V was pretty bloody, caught me off guard a little, and brilliant.
All in all, I absolutely have to give ABC’s of Terror Vol. III five brooches out of five lockets! I enjoyed every story, and I do not have a criticism. I think that sums it up. I do not want to give away any spoilers. Until next time, my friends.
