"entertaining thirteen-story collection focuses on classic monsters"
This entertaining thirteen-story collection focuses on
classic monster types like werewolves trying to do the
right thing in terms of humanity. The anthology is divided
into four subjects ("Werewolves and Witches", "The
Dead", "The Undead", and "The Demonic") with three sections
containing three stories and "The Undead" with four. The
tales overall are well written and are clearly targeted
towards modern monsterolists. The authors are a virtual
who's who, whom for the most part seem to have a good time
providing a contribution. No story is weak, but a bite
from "The Undead" section is truly worth the time. THE
REPENTANT is a fine short story anthology that the monster
generalist fan will appreciate.

In this all-new, original anthology, today's top talents
tackle good and evil and the many shades in between. In the
tradition of "Buffy" and "Angel," these thirteen stories
will feature some very unlikely protectors of humankind.
