What the reviewers say about The Stygian Soul:
Reviewed by: Eugen M. Bacon for
TCM
...An experienced cast of writers blends snatches of humor, horror,
and literary in fantasy tales well thought, not splashed blind. The anthology is
simple and natural; the mood vagrant enough to take you places without going
askance.
Worthy of mention are Tina Morgan’s Transcendence; a ceremony of the Choosing
that both fascinates and dismays; B. D. Faw’s darky short, How Scutter Saved
My Life; Michelle Acker’s Blood Debt, and a quest for power with a twist in
The Price of Magic; Lee Masterson’s acceptable risk that yields far more; Rie
Sheridan’s The Game of the Gods; and Carol Hightshoe’s chaos duet of
snapping branches, one unicorn, and a flame dancing elf.
