There is a lot of gore which doesn't bother me but also doesn't entertain and I feel most of the stories switched too quickly to the absurd. I have always preferred realism so I think maybe this just isn't for me.
I won't be rushing to pick up the next volume but there were aspects that I enjoyed. I liked Barkers writing style and there was a diverse mix of main characters.
