This will make you afraid to fly...

Once again, the Horror Writers of America have banded together to produce an anthology of superior quality. As always, the entire anthology is centered around a central theme. This time it revolves around Dry Plains International, an airport where things happen. What kind of things? Grisly murders, viral outbreaks, demonic attacks, terrorist action, and even planes falling out of the sky. There are 29 stories by different authors. Some of the more famous authors represented in this work are Brain Hodge, Nancy Kilpatrick, Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, and the editor, Ramsey Cambell. As with any anthology a great many of the stories are well through out and well written, with only a few duds sprinkled throughout. My only complaint about the anthology over all was that a great many of the stories had endings that weren't really endings, a pet peeve of mine. If that's a pet peeve of yours as well, be forewarned. Over all, though, this is a good book, and well worth the money.
