"Edgar Award-winning editor Otto Penzler collects sixty of his all-time favorite holiday crime stories--many of which are difficult or nearly impossible to find anywhere else"--Provided by publisher.
Great eclectic and marvelously mixed bag of stories, most to all of which were excellent reads no matter their originating genre or sub-genre. I'm going to have to get a copy of this to keep, as I already want to reread some stories despite having returned this book to the library. ( )
Sixty—count ‘em—60 short mystery stories (32+ hours) all set around Christmas. Some very old (1800s) to the 2020s. Best of the best, and some extremely rare. The narration was part of the charm—exceedingly well done. I’m not a short story fan, and I liked about 95% of the stories. I’d love to listen to this book every Christmas if it wasn’t so darned long. So good. One of my favorite books of the year. ( )
No lie! It is really a big book of short stories by renowned authors of the genre. I loved almost all of them and earned about some authors I didn't know. ( )
I've only read 6 of the stories so far, and 5 of them I've read previously in another anthology, but they've all been excellent, save 1 (A Visit From St. Nicholas by Ron Goulart; not badly written, I guess, but it didn't really feel like much of a story, either).
If you're into short stories and holiday reading, I'd recommend this one as a very worthwhile investment. ( )
It's cheating to mark this as read, but this is as read as it's going to get this year. I made it through a couple of sections of stories, which is probably enough for me. I especially enjoyed the classic and pulpy sections, of course. My favorites were the John D MacDonald and Nero Wolfe stories - will have to check out more of them. ( )
