Several of the stories in this anthology was just okay for me, but there were a few that I found outstanding. My favorite, of course, is Neil Gaiman's "Snow, Glass, Apples," which is one of my favorites of his short stories, a brilliant retelling of Snow White. I also liked "Bela's Plot" by Caitlín R. Kiernan, "The Dripping of Sundried Wineskins" by Brian Hodge, "The I of the Eye of the Worm" by Janet Berliner and George Guthridge, and "Dusting the Flowers" by David J. Schow. ( )

This is not the best of the series. The first was more entertaining. I think these stories want to be both scary and erotic. Unfortunately, most are neither.

I'd recommend the Hot Blood series as a better alternative. ( )

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 006105657X, Mass Market Paperback)

A second helping of blood and passion ...

Acclaimed dark fantasist Poppy Z. Brite's previous excursion into the nightmare realm of terrifying sensuality offered readers a sumptuous blood feast of unspeakable pleasures. Now she has done it again, serving up more provocative tales from some of the most inventive and accomplished writers in the field -- an unabashed exploration of shadow places and terrible hungers that's more dangerously seductive, more boldly erotic than the first.

If you found Love in Vein disturbingly dark, unsettlingly seductive, and deliciously carnal -- you're going to adore Twice Bitten: Love in Vein II. But be warned. It may be more than you can handle. It may open doors into the darkest corners of your unspoken fears. And it may be exactly what you've been secretly lusting for.
