I usually prefer reading novels to short stories, but anthologies are a good way to check out writers while making a smaller investment. I'll probably check out this anthology, but that's partly because I already like the worlds that you and Kelley Armstrong create.

Even for authors I love, I don't read collections as much as longer, single-volume works. Sometimes that's the only way to see their work, though (cf. Kelly Link), so I cope -- somehow.
