widowmaker [wid-oh-may-ker] noun 1. A thing with the potential to kill men. 2. A dead branch caught precariously high in a tree which may fall on a person below. 3. A dark fiction anthology of prodigious size; large enough to use as a doorstop... or crush a man's skull. A few months ago one of our own, James Newman, was severely injured in a freak accident. He's known universally in the horror fiction community as a truly great guy, and, when the news broke of the incident there was no shortage of people who wanted to help. Inside the pages of this collection, you will find tales that are lighthearted mixed in with stories that will fuel your nightmares, each one with the potential to be a WIDOWMAKER. The following 47 fellow authors and poets have contributed their words to this benefit anthology and 100% of the proceeds will go to help the Newman family.

I'm really glad I was reading the electronic version of this book; the print version would crush a reader's legs! Story after story, 47 in all, and most were good to very-good. There are a few that are outstanding, and a few that left me feeling "meh", but overall a good anthology to read for the season. Additionally, the proceeds of the sales of this book benefit a well-liked author of this genre. That alone was enough for me to buy the book. (

I'll probably be working my way through this behemoth for years to come and will leave reviews of individual stories as I go, not necessarily in order.

As I'm a contributor to this anthology, I'm not going to rate stories but rather comment on them.

Death to Trees! - Jeff Strand: Not so much a story as an amusing trifle, and a nice way to kick off the anthology.

Conversations Kill - Tim Waggoner: Very nicely written short story with an interesting premise that kept me engaged and guessing. The final reveal wasn't all I had hoped for, but overall a satisfying story.

A Church in the Middle of Nowhere - Michelle Garza and Melissa Lason: A rather unusual tale, simultaneously familiar and strange. This reads like a fever dream, and that's a compliment. I wish it had been longer, but it works quite fine as is.
