From Rachel Caine's tale about potion witches Andy and Holly, who must stand up to a community suddenly turned against them ("Forked Tongues") to stories by urban fantasy authors Hunter, Christina Henry, and other genre talents, these nine selections revolve in some way around shoes, whether a pair of boots formerly worn by a killer to footwear intended to face Ariadne's killer spiders.
VERDICT Though the theme of this collection might seem trivial, these entries succeed in pleasing fans of urban fantasy.
