[A] veritable feast of horror short fiction . . . a book no horror fan should miss."-Hellnotes, reviewed by Mario Guslandi

"To consolidate a year's worth of horror fiction into 20 plus stories must be nothing short of a Herculean task. It's a good thing we have Ellen Datlow. . . . Ellen Datlow doesn't put out bad anthologies. With her annual anthology, you are guaranteed to get a buffet of horrors both loud and quiet. If you have the cash for one horror anthology, this is a worthy purchase."-High Fever Books, 4/5 Stars for The Best Horror of the Year, Volume Eleven

"Edited by the venerable queen of horror anthologies, Ellen Datlow . . . The stories in this collection feel both classic and innovative, while never losing the primary ingredient of great horror writing: fear."
-The New York Times on The Best of the Best Horror of the Year

-Booklist(starred review for The Best of the Best Horror of the Year)

"A stunning and flawless collection that showcases the most terrifyingly beautiful writing of the genre. Datlow's palate for the fearful and the chilling knows no genre constraint, encompassing the undead, the supernatural, and the cruelty perpetrated by ordinary humans. Exciting, literary, and utterly scary, this anthology is nothing short of exceptional."
-Publishers Weekly(starred review for The Best of the Best Horror of the Year)

"A decade of celebrating the darkest gems of the genre as selected by Hugo-winning editor Ellen Datlow, whose name, by this point, is almost synonymous with quality frights . . . [and] contributed by a murderer's row of horror authors. . . . Essential."
-B&N Sci-Fi and Fantasy Blog, "Our Favorite Science Fiction & Fantasy Books of 2018"

"With the quality ranging from very good, to fantastic, to sublime, there just isn't the space to discuss them all.... If I need to make a pronouncement?based on Datlow's fantastic distillation of the genre?it's that horror is alive, well, and still getting under people's skin. If you have even a vague interest in dark fiction, then pick up this book."
-Ian Mond, Locus

"Datlow's survey of the first decade of her Best Horror of the Year series is also an argument about the field's major talents and trends.
