Reviews for Horror Fiction: An Introduction

Its value is in its discussions of women writers (often minor ones) and feminist and queer theory...it may be of value to those who are already well acquainted with the field for its stress on feminist and queer theory and on lesser-known female writers. -Roger C. Schlobin, Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts, 18.3
