It was a killer year for horror fiction of the harder kind. Authors, editors, and publishers presented readers with some startling works of horrific imagination, stories graphic in the extreme yet with subtleties suggesting larger meanings, tales that explore humanity by plumbing depths of soulless inhumanity and, in some cases, outright depravity. The stories here represent the best of them, disturbing tales that dig deep and take you into the dark heart of horror itself, unrelenting and unapologetic.

As the newest member of the Society of Wishes—a legendary wish-granting squad situated beyond reality—I’m plunged into a world of high-stakes magic, deadly secrets, and wishes that can shatter the cosmos. As the margin for error becomes more and more razor-thin, I start asking the tough questions like: How was the Society formed?

It's autumn in the heartland, where football rules, homecoming royalty reigns, and full moons don't just refer to a passing high school varsity bus.

This reporter is on a mission to sniff out a serious story that will impress not only her skeptical family and friends, but also her boss at the Grandville Gazette.

And after a whirlwind start to her new job, she's ready to enjoy the final weeks of summer at The Iowa State Fair.

A talented art student living in Paris attempts to ease his loneliness by creating the perfect woman, in marble. When his creation begins to whisper to him at night, he finds her a seductive muse who leads him down a path from which he cannot return.

The Society of Wishes is done with. Mission accomplished. The squad? Finally free to roam the world and do as we please. So long as we ignore the fact that our one enemy is still out there and at large.

The Society can't seem to catch a break, and Jo has had enough of it. She can destroy anything with her magic. So why not the Society itself? Her pursuit of freedom has Jo questioning everything, from what the Society really is to how it was formed and what does she really feel for their mysterious leader. With the unexpected help of an android serial killer and the silence of her fellow teammates, she'll get her answers. But Jo is not be prepared for what she learns.

Every wish has a cost and it's time for the Society to pay up.

Just because she may be a little accident prone and trouble seems to sometimes find her, Tressa can't get anyone in her small town to take her seriously. That is, until Tressa finds a seriously dead body.

It is partially a prose nod to the comic world - the bombast, the larger-than-life, the save-the-worlds and the calls-to-adventure. But it’s also a spotlight on the more intimate side of the genre. The hopes and dreams of our cape-clad heroes. The regrets and longings of our cowled villains. That poignant, solitary view of the world that can be experienced only from behind the mask.
