THE WRONG GRAVE
Kelly Link

One of my favourite collections of short stories contains my favourite story, "The Wizards of Perfil." I still get that feeling of wonder when I think about these short stories that are a mix of speculative fiction and horror but also so much more. Link's stories stop you in your tracks, fill you with dread, make you laugh, make you cry. I love these stories because the magic is so raw and earthy and real.
