3.0

This is the best entry in the series so far, with some cracking stories by some great authors, such as Henry Kuttner, Robert Sheckley, and Robert Bloch. Somewhat shockingly, considering that this was published in 1975, one of the stories involves beastiality attempted against a 14 year old girl. Got to say, that had me blinking. So a pretty good volume, but let down by the final two stories, one being a badly overwritten Lovecraft tale, the other being one of Seabury Quinn’s tedious Jules de Grandin yarns.
