Fighters of Fear: Occult Detective Stories Hardcover January 28, 2020
**** "Fighters of Fear: Occult Detective Stories" is a compelling anthology that offers readers an intriguing gateway into the niche genre of occult detective stories. Compiled by Mike Ashley, this collection features an extensive range of 31 stories, each penned by a different author, showcasing a rich variety of narrative styles and thematic explorations. Many readers appreciate the eclectic mix, highlighting how the selection introduces them to numerous authors they had not previously encountered while reinforcing a solid introduction to the sub-genre. A standout feature is the thorough introduction provided for each story, offering valuable context about the author and the character, which enriches the reading experience. However, a minor drawback noted by some is the inConsistent inclusion of publication dates within the introductions. While the compilation lists this information at the end, readers feel it would have been more beneficial had it been integrated into the introductory sections of each story for easier reference. The content primarily draws from late-nineteenth and early twentieth-century tales, with many stories exploring the balance between rational skepticism and supernatural intrigue. While some stories exhibit a more dated writing style that may feel stilted to modern readers, most of the selections maintain a level of quality that caters to both new readers and those familiar with the genre. While the absence of certain influential authors, such as Algernon Blackwood, is noted as an oversight, the anthology still includes many recognized figures in the occult detective realm. For fans of short stories, particularly those with an appreciation for the supernatural and detective work, this anthology is a treasure trove of entertainment. It invites readers to immerse themselves in suspenseful narratives without the lengthy commitment of a full-length novel, making it a highly recommended addition for any library. **
