Strange Brew edited by P.N. Elrod

Strange Brew edited by P.N. Elrod, 371 pages

Since these are all short stories, to say anything would give too much away. So I'm just giving my impression of each:

Seeing Eye by Patricia Briggs -- excellent story and unusual twist. Loved the most with a witch and werewolf as the main characters.

Last Call by Jim Butcher --  completely lost.

Death Warmed Over  by Rachel Caine-- a whole new look at "raising the dead."

Vegas Odds by Karen Chance - my second favorite story in the book. Well written with a shock a the beginning, middle and the end.

Hectate's Golden Eye by P.N. Elrod - There is more than meets the "eye" in this story. It's up to a vampire to figure it out.

Bacon by Charlaine Harris - the title had  me curious until the end. Then it made perfect (and hilarious) sense.

Signatures of the Dead by Faith Hunter - lulled me to sleep.

Ginger by Caitlin Kittredge -- if you haven't read her stories, this is apparently a novella of one and you'd be completely lost like I was.

Dark Sins by  Jenna Maclaine -- A vampire witch but then something more.
