Datlow has produced a collection filled with some of the most powerful voices in the field: Pat Cadigan, Terry Dowling, Jeffrey Ford, Christopher Fowler, Glen Hirshberg, K. W. Jeter, Joyce Carol Oates, and Lucius Shepard, to name a few. Each author approaches fear in a different way, but all of the stories' characters toil within their own hell. Winner of the Shirley Jackson Award for Best Anthology, \u003ci\u003eInferno\u003c\/i\u003e will scare the pants off readers and further secure Ellen Datlow's standing as a preeminent editor of modern horror.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Datlow makes a solid claim to being the premiere horror editor of her generation.” —\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly (starred review) on Inferno\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“One good ghost story, one truly effective tale, is usually sufficient to scare the bejesus out of a person. \u003ci\u003eThe Dark\u003c\/i\u003e contains sixteen tales, enough to keep fans tossing and turning and peeking under the bed for a fortnight and then some.
