Book Reviews of Seeds of Fear (Hot Blood)

Book Review: A Hot-Blood series book with new seeds to stir up those dark, naughty fears and desires
Summary: 5 Stars

Starting off lightly with a short Preface by editors Jeff Gelb and Michael Garrett, and including an introduction by Brinke Stevens (Evila - 'B' Movie Scream Queen extraordinaire) where she expertly walks us down a path of golden and gory memories, such as the momentous seductive powers of Dracula in an era of prim, high-collared ladies. She also adds the lovely comparison of death and the "little death" in $ex.

Here is a peek of Gelb and Garrett's gruesome lineup:

1) Scream Queen by Robert Kelly
2) Hideyhole by Billie Sue Mosiman
3) High Contempt by J.N. Williamson
4) Just A Phone Call Away by John F.D. Taft
5) Black And White And Bed All Over by James Crawford
6) Handyman by Jeff Gelb
7) Airhead by Michael Newton
8) Five Seconds by J.L. Comeau
9) Sympathy Call by Michael Garrett
10) Overeaters Ominous by Stephen R. George
11) Grub-Girl by Edward Lee
12) Hunger by Kathy Ptacek
13) The Watcher by Rex Miller and Jeff Gelb
14) Lullaby & Goodnight by Wayne Allen Sallee
15) I Am Joe's Penus by Scott H. Urban
16) What You See by Paul Dale Anderson
17) The Beast by Larry Tritten
18) See Marilyn Monroe's P@nties! by Bentley Little
19) Devil With A Blue Dress by P.D. Cacek

A few of my favorites would be Michael Newton's 'Airheads', a little romping and stalking goes awry for a killer's plans. In 'Overeaters Ominous', Stephen R. George paints a sickening tale of abuse and retribution. Edward Lee's 'Grub-Girl' lives up to what we have come to expect from Lee, a grotesque tale of previously dead "street girls". Allow Kathryn Ptacek to take you into the furiously frustrating den of desire with her tale, 'Hunger'. Find out about how a marriage falls apart from a deadly threesome in Rex Miller and Jeff Gelb's 'The Watcher'. What collection isn't complete without a little freak fun too, expertly told in Wayne Allen Sallee's 'Lullaby & Goodnight'. Get yourself some queasy chuckles from both Scott H. Urban's 'I Am Joe's Penus' (misspelling intentional to avoid edit) and Bentley Little's 'See Marilyn Monroe's P@anties!'

At the end of the book are short bios for each of the contributing authors. I must say that there wasn't one story in this collection that I didn't like. Each one was well selected for its 'Horror & $ex' content, and each one uniquely delivers a tale twisted the two together with thrashing, animalistic, bloody glee. Don't miss out on this collection. Enjoy!
