This is a great little collection. There really isn't a”bad” story, I mean, honestly, they are too short to become bad. What this is great for is finding new authors. In the same way you order a flight and try craft beers, here you get a bite-sized story to see if you gel with an author's writing style.
For my own benefit, I just want to list some of my stand-out faves:
Jane Death Theory #13 by Scott should be required reading for everyone
Lone by Jac Jemc scared the shit out of me and is still scaring me a week after reading it
The Unhaunting by Nguyen is genius
Pincer and Tongue by Jones- the man is a marvel
Caravan by Iniguez was so, so good

I wrote down some of the authors that impressed me. Some of them, I had forgotten about (like I 5 star raved about one of Ben Loory's collections awhile back) and some of them have novels coming out soon.
