About This Item
[Sauk City, WI]: Arkham House Publishers, Inc., [1993]. First edition. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. (21777). Octavo, illustrations by J. K. Potter, cloth. Retrospective collection of thirty-nine stories. "A cornerstone collection of modern horror." - Barron (ed), Fantasy and Horror (1999) 6-65. "...Ramsey Campbell is likely to be remembered as the leading horror writer of his generation, and perhaps the most significant writer in the field since Lovecraft. His unflinchingly bleak vision, his richly allusive style and his chilling analysis of abnormal psychology are certainly not best-seller material; but his very bountiful output-hundreds of short stories and nearly a score of novels-already represents a substantial contribution to weird fiction..." - Pringle (ed), St. James Guide to Horror, Ghost & Gothic Writers, pp. 120-123.
