“The editors have done an amazing job in compiling some of the best ‘weird’ writers working right now.” -- Fantasy Hive ""I honestly could list every story in this volume as a standout because that would be the truth. They are unique, beautifully written, and deliver a wonderful reading experience for any reader that enjoys tales of witches, and their craft. Highly recommended reading to all."" -- Uncomfortably Dark Reviews of the previous anthology, Folk Horror: 'The range of imaginations it conglomerates forms a staunch bastion of stories, and Kane and O’Regan’s introduction is worth a perusal just to get a feel of how considered the whole thing is. Complete with beautiful cover, the anthology isn’t afraid to transplant you from the cosier realms of reality to its darker, untamed regions, and from the first moment you’ll wonder the kind of Pandora’s box you have opened...' (Ginger Nuts of Horror) 'Creepy and entertaining' (Black Gate) '100% gems all the way for me [...] A varied range of often genuinely scary tales, all of the highest quality. A very handsomely presented hardback edition, too.' (Concatenation) 'The hit rate for quality stories is there.' (SFBook) '...stories concern[ing] the forces of nature; deals with the devil, or perhaps something worse than the devil; creatures from myth, and creatures that look familiar, but aren’t; wedding ceremonies with sinister undertones; and even tale set in a post-apocalyptic world where the old ways are re-embraced. [...] Folk Horror manages to be just as good inside those ""trippy"" covers as the covers themselves.' (Concatenation) Reviews of earlier anthologies edited by Marie and Paul: ‘The Mammoth book of Body Horror deserves a place on your bookshelf, but make sure it’s well away from kids and those of a fragile disposition.’ (Starburst, 10/10 review) ‘An impressive collection… Exit Wounds proves how excellent crime short stories can be!’ (The Times) ‘The quality of the 19 entries is top-notch... Every entry is well-written, suspenseful, and peopled with fully developed characters – a tribute to the editors’ judgment.’ (Starred, featured review of Exit Wounds in Publishers Weekly) Overall, Wonderland is a really interesting collection of tales, one that will amuse fans of Alice and genre fiction alike.’ (Starburst magazine) ‘O’Regan and Kane have pulled the anthology together as only editors with consummate skill and experience can, and in terms of style and delivery, there really is something for everyone. It will be good to see The Other Side of Never take flight in the real world. There is certainly enough here to get anyone “hooked”. Highly recommended.’ (The British Fantasy Society)
