How lucky do you feel?

So reads the business card from LIMBUS, INC., a shadowy employment agency that operates at the edge of the normal world. LIMBUS's employees are just as suspicious and ephemeral as the motives of the company, if indeed it could be called a company in the ordinary sense of the word.

In this shared-world anthology, five heavy hitters from the dark worlds of horror, fantasy, and sci-fi pool their warped takes on the shadow organization that offers employment of the most unusual kind to those on the fringes of society.

One thing's for sure - you'll never think the same way again about the fine print on your next employment application!

great set of stories

I really enjoyed this set of stories. If you like weird Twilight Zone type stuff this book is for you

Excellent shared universe anthology!

Came for Jonathan Maberry's contribution and, as always, found a few more authors to add to my queue.

Thr concept here is great and each story stands well alone while tying into the overall plot.

Can't wait to get into the next of these...

Needed a better narrator.

Most of the stories were just okay. The Sam Hunter short story at the end was very good. The narrator has a pleasant voices, but fails to add inflection or take a breath… it’s easy to get lost.

Narration is making it hard to get thru this one..

I *love* Jonathan Maberry's work. And I *think* this one is a good one, but the audio is...not good. It's a combination of the lack of timing and inflection of the reader and some really horky editing that makes it seriously hard to follow who's talking and when there's a scene transition. I may end up having to buy the physical or Kindle version and just read it myself.

Terrible narrator good story

I have listened to the skilled Ray Porter too much to enjoy this narrator. All but one of the stories was appropriate for his voice. Good short stories in general but many cliffhangers and more questions than answers.
