"Carniepunk" short stories

Overall I enjoyed this collection of carnival related fantasy stories. Silly me, I didn't realize there were so many authors writing in this urban fantasy type of genre. A few of the stories reeked too much of female wish fulfillment,  but that's life, I guess. A few of the stories were so corny I was afraid their sameness would ruin "The Dresden Files" for me, but it didn't.
