Having finished the Complete Lovecraft I decided to move on to something light; Dark Fantasy is a 1988 horror anthology, whose stories range from Urban and Folk horror, to psychosexual and domestic horrors. I'm 100 pages in so far and it's got some promise, some genuine chills Life Line was especially alarming in this age of AI companions, but Iike all anthologies there's good with the bad, Charley was kinda mean spirited and uncomfortably sexualised.

Recommended only if you find it in some dingy bookshop for less than £2.
