I do not recommend reading this at night!

I would not read this book at night by myself. I probably wouldn't read this book at night even if I wasn't alone either for that matter. I said I was looking for a scary book and Howls From the Dark Ages definitely filled that need. Maybe a little too well! A collection of short stories written by a variety of authors each of these tales are downright creepy and while I'm not going to review each story, however, I will say that The Crowing by Caleb Stephens was my absolute favorite. To be honest I'd like to see it turned into a whole book, as I really need to know what happens next! My only tiny complaint is that in most of the stories I never felt like I was reading a story that was actually set in Medieval times and I think that's probably because they were all short stories just not enough space to really set the scene but still. The reason I read it was because of the timeframe they were supposed to be set in so that was a tad bit disappointing. And I mean just a tad bit because out of all of the short story compilations I've read recently this was easily the best. Each story felt complete I didn't feel like the author left anything out (other than the aforementioned), none of them felt rushed, and none of the stories were confusing. Overall, if you are a horror fan I can't recommend this one enough, just remember you may want to leave the lights on when you do. Thanks to Netgalley and HOWL Society Press for the eArc, this review has been left voluntarily.
