Summary: An eclectic collection
Comment: An eclectic collection, that just sparkles with the unique magic and talent that makes Nina Kiriki Hoffman one of the best Sci-Fi and fantasy writers of our time.
Among an impressive collection of stories, my favourites were Skeleton Key, and Haunted. Both for their inspired storyline, amazing insight, and subtle humour.
Just one of the things I absolutely love about Nina's writing is her ability to take a completely different twist on subjects/storylines that have been done to death, and actually make the reader think and sometimes laugh at life and Sci-Fi's incredible possibilities.
A must-have. Read this collection, and also "The Thread That Binds the Bones" and "A Red Heart of Memories", and you'll be hooked - there is no turning back.

Summary: Rod Serling visiting a not quite normal earth
Comment: This fantasy anthology consists of eight delightful but strange short stories and one superb novella all written in the last decade. Each tale consists of an individual(s) whose frailties and desires (in some cases these are the frailties) lead to wrong turns in worlds that seem like our own yet feel different. The novella, "Haunted Humans", is a powerful story that will shake the souls of readers. Ghosts and humans argue, fuss, and fight often inside someone's head at the Mental Healing Center to keep Dorothy Jean safe from Chase, who may be residing inside a patient's head.
The stories feel absolutely weird as if Rod Serling visited a not quite normal earth that at first glance seems like ours, but overlaid in a fantasy environs. All nine contributions will delight the audience, but no doubt the novella is the stand out that will send readers seeking Nina Kiriki Hoffman's novels (see PAST THE SIZE OF DREAMING and FISTFUL OF SKY).

Summary: Superbly crafted fantasy tales
Comment: Time Travelers, Ghosts, And Other Visitors is an imaginative anthology of nine short science fiction and fantasy by multiple Nebula and Hugo-award nominee Nina Kiriki Hoffman. These superbly crafted fantasy tales range from the exploits of a manipulated time traveler, to the award-nominated novella "Haunted Humans" where ghosts and mortals must join forces to stand against a vile killer. An unforgettable collection that spans both minds and worlds, Nina Hoffman's Time Traveler's, Ghosts, And Other Visitors clearly documents her as one of the very best in her chosen genre.
