Praise for this book

"Stories is the perfect dark counterbalance to the smells of suntan lotion and barbecue smoke waiting for you this summer." -- Los Angeles Times

"These stories are part of what Gaiman and Sarrantonio call "a new literature of the imagination," a rewardingly imprecise theme that guarantees that no matter how many times you dip into this tomish treasure chest, there will always be something surprising waiting for you inside." -- www.veryshortlist.com on STORIES

"If you can't find something to like from [Stories] roster, you really need a vacation." -- St. Petersburg Times

"A sometimes creepy, dark and dreamlike two thumbs up." -- Time Out New York

"An ambitious anthology with a pleasing mix of modes and moods. Stories has a little something for everyone who appreciates the possibilities of short fiction." -- San Francisco Chronicle
