About the authors
Charlaine Harris was born in Tunica, Mississippi, and raised in the Mississippi River Delta area in the middle of a cotton field. Though her early works consisted largely of poems about ghosts and, later, teenage angst, she wrote plays when she attended Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee and started writing novels a few years later.
After publishing two stand-alone mysteries, Harris launched a light-hearted mystery series 'starring' Georgia librarian Aurora Teagarden. The first of the eight books, Real Murders, was shortlisted for Best Novel in the 1990 Agatha Awards. In 1996, she released the first of the much darker Shakespeare mysteries, featuring the amateur sleuth Lily Bard, a karate student who makes her living cleaning houses.
Charlaine Harris then wrote the first of her Southern vampire mysteries starring Sookie Stackhouse, the quirky, telepathic waitress who works in a bar in the fictional Northern Louisiana town of Bon Temps. Dead Until Dark won the Anthony Award for Best Paperback Mystery. It also won Harris a whole new fan club of devoted readers and pushed her into the bestseller lists. The Sookie Stackhouse series, in which Sookie has to deal with vampires, werecreatures and other supernatural folk - not to mention her own complicated love life - was also instrumental in creating the urban fantasy genre.
Sookie Stackhouse also enchanted Alan Ball, creator of the smash TV show Six Feet Under, who took an option and wrote and directed the pilot episode for True Blood himself. It was an instant hit when it premiered in the US, and that success was repeated when it was first aired in Britain last year. The second season of TRUE BLOOD will start this spring.
Harris's newest series features Harper Connelly, a young woman who, after being struck by lightning, finds herself able to locate the bodies of the dead and to determine the cause of their death. There are four Harper titles (Grave Sight, Grave Surprise, An Ice Cold Grave and Grave Secret).
Charlaine Harris is a member of the Mystery Writers of America and the American Crime Writers League. She is a member of the board of Sisters in Crime, and alternates with Joan Hess as president of the Arkansas Mystery Writers Alliance. She is married, the mother of three, and lives in a small town in Southern Arkansas. When she is not writing her own books, she reads omnivorously!

In Brightest Day by Toni P. Kelner.
A fun mystery story that packs in Loa, A Revenant Architect and an engaging narrative.
Wizard Home Security by Victor Gischler.
A tale of wizards, magic and subterfuge. Quite entertaining.
Gray by Patricia Briggs.
A wonderfully developed Urban Fantasy short that screams out for a full novel/series/more stories. A vampire comes home.
Blood On The Wall by Heather Graham.
A game of cat and mouse between a P.I. and a local troublemaker suddenly get interrupted by a more dangerous game. UF/Detective noir brilliance.
The Strength Inside by Melissa Marr.
A great UF story that looks at something a bit more different. A story of balances - Tradition against Progress. Security against Sacrifice. Excellent, I'll definitely be looking for more stories and books by Melissa Marr.
Woolsley's Kitchen Nightmare by E. E. Knight.
A fun take on Urban Fantasy that isn't quite so Urban. Gastronomical shenanigans await you in this lively story. (Fans of the recent Sin du Jour novellas by Matt Wallace will love this one!)
Through This House by Seanan McGuire.
An October Daye story that falls between the events of the novels "Late Eclipses" and "One Salt Sea". A sure fire hit for any Toby Daye fans.
The Path by K. J.. Rozan.
A great story where the spiritual plane intersects with corporeal existence when a sacred shrine is at stake.
Rick The Brave by Stacia Kane.
An action packed tale featuring ghosts, magic and strange bedfellows.
Full-Scale Demolition by Suzanne McLeod.
Pixies, magic and scaled beasts collide in this fun UF romp around London.
There are other stories in this anthology that I haven't mentioned - all of which are great. But the ones I have listed above are the ones I really enjoyed the most! In every case, I'm going to be looking out for further stories by those authors. This anthology is basically a gateway drug to a severe Urban Fantasy addiction. Be warned! ;)


If you don't have time to stick your nose in a book for a few hours or have a short span of attention this is for you.
