What I most appreciated though was the diversity. Protagonists included people of color, women and the lgbtq community. A broad spectrum of talent and unique voices. ( ) authors include Michael Marshall Smith (zombie-ish horror), Seanan McGuire (not super interesting family revenge story), and Stephen Graham Jones (deserted island variant). Alyssa Wong’s What My Mother Left Me is a great variation on an old story, and Bradley Denton’s A Ship of the South Wind seems a bit of a stretch—there’s no sea, only a former sailor on the plains—but it’s a pretty good horror story nonetheless. Contains: Deadwater / Simon Bestwick -- Fodder's jig / Lee Thomas -- The curious allure of the sea / Christopher Golden -- The Tryal attract / Terry Dowling -- The whalers song / Ray Cluley -- A ship of the south wind / Bradley Denton -- What my mother left me / Alyssa Wong -- Broken record / Stephen Graham Jones -- Saudade / Steve Rasnic Tem -- A moment before breakng / A.C. Wise -- Sister, dearest sister, let me show you to the sea / Seanan McGuire -- The deep sea swell / John Langan -- He sings of salt and wormwood / Brian Hodge -- Shit happens / Michael Marshall Smith -- Haunt / Siobhan Carroll. An anthology built around the theme of the ocean? How could I say no to that? Not all of the stories resonated with me, but many did. And the ones that did- resonated deeply. FODDER'S JIG by Lee Thomas. Sea monsters, a gay couple and a gold-digging relative. Every time I thought this tale was nothing special, something special happened. I need to read more Lee Thomas! WHAT MY MOTHER LEFT ME by Alyssa Wong blew me away. Imaginative and bold, I already purchased another story from this author. This was my favorite tale in the book. SISTER, DEAREST SISTER, LET ME SHOW YOU TO THE SEA by Seanan McGuire. I always wanted a sister. Now, I know I was better off alone. SHIT HAPPENS by Michael Marshall Smith. I laughed my butt off. Then I became nauseated and then I laughed some more. This is one of the grossest and funniest stories I've ever read. HE SINGS OF SALT AND WORMWOOD by Brian Hodge. Even though they weren't the main crux of the story, I never knew ship-worms existed and now I may never go into the ocean again. A SHIP OF THE SOUTH WIND by Bradley Denton. This one wasn't about the sea as we know it, but instead, a sea that dried up long ago. It also features the coolest ship I've ever read about. With a few more notable stories by Christopher Golden and Steve Rasnic Tem, I thoroughly enjoyed this anthology and can honestly say that I highly recommend it!

HTML:WINNER OF THE 2018 BRAM STOKER AWARD FOR BEST ANTHOLOGY Stranded on a desert island, a young man yearns for objects from his past. A local from a small coastal town in England is found dead as the tide goes out. A Norwegian whaling ship is stranded in the Arctic, its crew threatened by mysterious forces. In the nineteenth century, a ship drifts in becalmed waters in the Indian Ocean, those on it haunted by their evil deeds.
