PRAISE FOR INFERNO

“Ellen Datlow is the queen of anthology editors in America.… Inferno isn’t just good, it is astonishingly good.”

—Peter Straub, #1 New York Times–bestselling author

“Datlow makes a solid claim to being the premier horror editor of her generation with this state-of-the-art anthology of 20 new stories by some of horror fiction’s best and brightest.”

Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Fans of horror fiction owe it to themselves to pick up this creepy, stylish anthology.”

“When you see [Datlow’s] name attached to a book, you know you’re in for a rich literary meal. And what a feast it is! … You won’t find any tired old clichés here, only fiercely original stories told with some of the best prose I’ve read all year.”

Fearzone

“This is a smorgasbord for any horror reader, regardless of where his or her interests may lie; horror, terror, or gross out. This book serves up excellent, high-quality creep.”

The Green Man Review

“[Ellen Datlow] is to be commended for her body of work, and this latest collection of hers deserves to be widely read.”

Dayton City Paper

“Eschewing many of the horror genre’s common motifs, the stories here achieve unsettling effects with less mayhem and more pure craftsmanship, so that this is one of the best recent collections of horror as literature.”
