Jacob, we accepted an illustration for this one, right?

One story that always sticks out in my mind from Undead is Wellington's Chuy and the Fish. That was a good read.

Of course, there were plenty of other stories that were excellent, but that squid was damn gross.

That was my favorite as well.  I still haven't started reading David's Monster series of novels.  They are right at the top of my TBR pile.

I finished reading The Undead Anthology 1 today.

Trying to figure out which stories I think are the best when there is so many excellent stories to choose from is difficult. All of the stories were great.

There are two that stick out in my mind though. The first is Hotline because the ending caught me by surprise. I won't say any more about it in case someone reading this post hasn't read it yet, but I didn't expect it to end like that.

The second story was Undead Prometheus. The Frankenstien character was awsome.

Thanks!

I'm headed there now.

Returned to add:

How does 5 out of 5 stars sound!

Thanks again to everyone who wrote stories in The Undead Anthology! It was a good read.

Yeah, Bret, thanks! I suggested it as a joke based on that shitty review of The Dead, which you commented on. But I’m glad you took it seriously. Thanks again! I just have to ask: what did you think of "Pale Moonlight"?

Yea, I thought about that as I was typing in WWW.AMAZON.COM, but I figured "What the Hell!" It was a good idea. Yea, I didn't buy it at Amazon, but I didn't have anything but nice things to say, so it didn't hurt anybody, and it was my honest oppinion. I suppose that if Amazon ever has everyone buy books there before they can comment I might have to purchase the book through them, or have a lot less to say.

Thanks again! I just have to ask: what did you think of "Pale Moonlight"?

Pale Moonlight. I thought it was great. An interesting twist on the zombie story. Definately scary when the house filled with zombies and I thought that Nathan was a goner. The way that he coped with the dilema was awsome.

I have to agree with most of the others, "Chuy and the Fish" was my favorite.  Pale Moonlight was up there too, but I can't decide whether I'd give it my 2nd place token.  It might take years to decide between the others.
