An anthology of spine-tingling tales of urban terror from modern masters of horror, including Sherrilyn Kenyon, Cherie Priest, and Seanan McGuire
In shadowy back alleys, crumbling brownstones, and gleaming skyscrapers, cities harbor unique forms of terror. Here lie malicious ghosts, cursed buildings, malignant deities, and personal demons of every kind . . .
Twenty of today’s most talented writers bend their skills toward the darkness, creating brand-new tales guaranteed to keep you awake at night—especially if you live in the dark cities.
Far worse than mythical creatures such as vampires and werewolves, these are horrors that lurk in the places you go every day—where you would never expect to find them. But they are there, and now that you know, you’ll never again walk the streets alone.
“A fantastic line-up of authors.” —The Verge
“A varied and eclectic batch of tales, but editor and contributor Christopher Golden . . . pulls it all together nicely.” —The Blood-Shed
“This is a horror anthology with stories written by some of the top authors in the genre that is full of originality, with tales that deliver chills and provoke thought while leaving the zombies and vampires behind.” —Adventures in Poor Taste
“The quality and variety of the stories should provide an ample amount of reading material to make Dark Cities a worthwhile read.” —Ravenous Monster
