About this listen

2019. The year certainly made its mark on the world - and more than its share of scars. It also made for a bounty of good horror stories of the extreme kind, the best of which the tales herein serve to illustrate.

2019 was the year Year's Best Hardcore Horror went global. Not by design but because the stories inside just happened to have been written by authors hailing from various parts of the globe. From Australia by way of South Africa, to Italy, Scotland, Norway, Taiwan, North America and India - the common denominator being that their tales come from darkest regions of imagination.

An Interesting Collection Of Hardcore Horror.

Although I'm no expert on hardcore horror in book or film form (my tastes are more gothic and supernatural).I did find this international anthology of short stories, an enlightening read.
The stories were a mixed bag, but the best ones were very good and at times (for me!) very shocking. The narration by Cheryl May was well done, although I think an anthology by different authors, would be better narrated by different voices.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
