A Starred Review for John Kessel's The Dark Ride

John Kessel's huge (over 580 pages) short story collection, The Dark Ride, has just landed a starred review from Publishers Weekly:

“It takes a brilliant author to pull off a Jane Austen–Mary Shelley mash-up, but Kessel does so with aplomb in the moving and suspenseful ‘Pride and Prometheus,’ which introduces Mary, the most bookish Bennett sister, to Victor Frankenstein… Across the board, these exceptional tales showcase Kessel’s remarkable ability to encourage suspension of disbelief through even the wildest what-ifs. This is a master storyteller at work.”
