Not only a must purchase for the quality of stories included in the volume, but also for the amazing tool that is Datlow's extensive 'Summation' section where she recaps the year in awards, key publications, and Horror news. Readers will not find a more comprehensive, and yet still easily digestible, snapshot of the entire genre anywhere else. -Becky Spratford, Library Journal For over a decade now, [The Best Horror of the Year] anthology has charted the established masters and rising new voices of horror fiction, and provided an exhaustive catalog of every major novel, novella, and collection published in the past year. Now reaching Lucky Number 13, the series shows no signs of slowing down any time soon-in fact, its latest installment is one of the strongest yet. -Alex Skopic, Signal Horizon
