Some of the stories, especially in the first half of the book were very good and interesting.Some of the stories near the end of the book were boring and I didn't care for them.It was OK, but nothing special.

Review... I am definitely going to agree that this is a dark fantasy, this is not the usual kind of fantasy I enjoy reading, but I thought I would give it a try and see how I go Assorted Fantasies is full of short stories, which from the first is obvious there is more to the stories than I am getting; however they are also all related. It took a few of the short stories before I got a better understanding of what was going on, but I still know that I am missing the bigger picture. For myself, I d Review...

It took a few of the short stories before I got a better understanding of what was going on, but I still know that I am missing the bigger picture. For myself, I doubt I'll read this again, it was just a little bit too dark for my liking. Having no previous knowledge of the series, I feel that some of the short stories seemed pointless, I do however, imagine they are connected to a bigger picture, but without it... I will admit that I did enjoy the fact that not all of the stories are contained to one place, you visit places at random all over the world. Unfortunately, for me, this is not enough to keep my interest to find out more about this world. What I figured to be the main thread that connects all of the short stories was intriguing enough to have me coming back to find out more, but the amount of gore that was involved was a bit much for my tastes. I like my paranormal/fantasy, but clearly dark fantasy is not for me

I received a free copy of this book from the author via LibraryThing Members Giveaway. I voluntarily read and review this book. A collection of dark fantasy/horror short stories. Each story has its own creepy, dark atmosphere with vivid descriptions. The story will keep you dreading what will happen next to the characters. I am not a fan of dark fantasy. But I found myself enjoyed the stories. A good short read.

Joel Puga escreve fantasia e terror já há vários anos, maioritariamente sob a forma de ficção curta. Já li outros trabalhos seus publicados em antologias, fanzines e na internet, por isso quando soube que ia lançar uma antologia de contos só seus, achei que estava mais que tempo de o revisitar. Todos os contos incluídos neste volume já foram também publicados individualmente em ebook mas esta antologia está também disponível como livro físico, para os que ainda não estão bem ambientados com os ebooks. Para começar vou falar da antologia como um todo e depois debruçar-me-ei um pouco sobre cada conto individualmente. No geral gostei bastante do ambiente sombrio e do facto de o autor escolher usar o território português ou ultramarino em quase todos. Em comum, entre a maioria das histórias, há quase que só o facto de serem fantasia, pois não existe um tema central. Isso, contudo, não é um ponto negativo.
