Strange Candy is a collection of short stories, most original, some Anita (including, reportedly, the very first AB short story she ever sold). Some have been previously published, some have been written specifically for this collection. I'm not sure if she's including a brand-new AB story as well...there are apparently two AB stories included but whether she counts the first AB one as "brand new!" (since it'll be new to her adoring zombies fans) or older, I have no idea.
According to Darla, there are no Merry stories in it. I'm sort of disappointed, but since Merry doesn't do anything but have sex and gain nifty powers, I don't mind too much. The first would be eye-gougingly boring to read; the second would be better off in a stand-alone book.
