"Highly recommended for all libraries interested in the latest in sf and fantasy as well as modern horror." -- Library Journal "Ann and Jeff VanderMeer bring their expertise and affection for sci-fi and fantasy to a detailed examination of one of the latest styles to hit this constantly evolving scene." -- Kirkus Reviews "Jeff VanderMeer is one of the most remarkable practitioners of the literary fantastic in America today." --Locus "A hip, stylistic fiction that evokes the gritty exuberance of pulp novels and dime-store comic books." -- Bookgasm.com "The first comprehensive anthology of the movement." -- Guardian Unlimited "These stories shine because of their attempts to subvert the normal paradigms of fantasy ... we are truly seeing something that'll bring new life to a genre." --SF Crownest "A collection of great stories, some of them really remarkable, a clear portrait of a multi-faceted and undefinable sub-genre and a statement that good literature has no boundaries. An anthology that certainly has conquered its place in history." --verbeat.org "Unique, experimental, and even lyrical stories... If the reader is interested in the weird tale, genre-crossing, or dark fantasy and horror, this book is worth checking out." --Green Man Review
