ISBN-13: 978-1-4344-0457-2, ISBN: 1-4344-0457-9

"It is precisely because Leiber's or Moorcock's or de Camp's work constitutes an original vision, and is not a retread of Howard, that it is of interest. Our recommendation to writers worrying about definitions: don't. Concentrate on a good story instead. Is Darrell Schweitzer's Sekenre series sword & sorcery? How about Keith Taylor's Kamose? They have all the elements, don't they? Sekenre even carried his father's old sword through ..."

"Often at the conclusion of an author interview, a question is posed, one that allows the subject to announce or promote forthcoming projects and publications. In the case of Thomas Ligotti, the response has invariably been to the effect that he never has any idea what he is going to produce in the future, if anything. Since he began publishing in the early 1980s, this answer has perhaps seemed somewhat disingenuous. Some may have though ..."

Although they all have the coppery tang of the eldritch, the tales aren't strictly in the horror mien. Some of them are an alloy of horror with a sci-fi, humour, detective, vampire or even romance slant. The very best are truly horrible, in the mos ..."
