Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Terror hides its true form in the blackest of shadows, patiently waiting to unleash a neverending nightmare upon those foolish -- or daring -- enough to uncover its evil visage. From the farthest reaches of twisted imaginations to the deepest, most intimate recesses of tortured minds, this collection of heart-stopping, bone-chilling tales reveals a world of unseen, unspoken horrors that will tear at your very soul, even as they grab you by the throat. Join Ray Bradbury, Graham Masterton, Dan Simmons, F. Paul Wilson, and other masters of the macabre as they take readers to the most hideous of realms to discover the evil that lurks behind the depths of darkness.

Rated by buyers -
DARKER MASQUES is a nearly 600-page collection of horror stories and poems previously collected in MASQUES III and MASQUES IV. While the roster of authors is mostly first-rate, few of these stories rank among their best; some are even rather obvious or pointless. Out of 59 entries, I woould only recommend three: "Julia's Touch" by David T. Connolly, which has more emotional depth in its three pages than many novels, "My Private Memoirs of the Hoffer Stigmata Pandemic" by Dan Simmons, which has a sick, albeit enjoyable, sense of justice as its theme, and "The Secret" by Steve Allen (!!!), which evokes just the right note of pathos. For the most part, the other stories aren't bad, they're just not exceptional.
