Datlow’s newest anthology, Fears: Tales of Psychological Horror, considers the aspect of dread and its influence on our mental state as we experience the world around us.

‘Billed as ‘found fiction,’ this collection elects to shape the narrative format rather than the thematic content of the stories within, presenting each entry as material records detailing separate (mostly horrific) narratives that are preserved in 9-1-1 calls, oral history transcriptions, police reports, forum posts, video game walkthroughs, SMS texts, as well as more familiar literary staples like journals, letters, and newspaper clippings.’

‘Collage Macabre is an elegant and incisive anthology that showcases some of the best young talent in speculative fiction today. Spanning eighteen stories and as many authors, the collection tries on all manner of form and circumstance with the only true unifying element being that each tells the story of a creator.’
