Review by: Audra on July 16, 2010 :
This issue features items from Apex's Dark Faith anthology, which looks interesting -- and if the two stories are an indication of the quality, then I'm all over it.

'City of Refuge' by Jerry Gordon was my hands down favorite -- I'm a sucker for dystopias anyway, never mind ones involving the undead and underground religious movements.

Review by: brainycat on June 16, 2010 :
I finished this issue a couple of weeks ago, but I didn't take any notes so I can't really speak to specific stories. But I will uniquivocally say you cannot go wrong with this magazine IF you like your horror and/or scifi dark, creepy and edgy.

The release of a new Apex is something I look forward to every month. I have not been disappointed yet. Sure, some of the content is stronger than some of the rest of the content, but I haven't been disappointed by the selections at all.
