From Publishers Weekly
Nolan (Science Fiction Origins) and Brock (Totems and Taboos) have put
together a compelling anthology of dark short fiction that includes
unused Twilight Zone scripts and unpublished work by the likes of Ray
Bradbury and Richard Matheson. There's something for everyone in the
20 stories and scripts that span such genres as erotica (Nancy
Kilpatrick's Hope and the Maiden), horror (Gary A. Braunbeck's A
Certain Disquieting Darkness) and humor (Matheson's short screenplay
Madri-Gall). Highlights include Bradbury's Some of My Best Friends Are
Martians, John Shirley's violent ghost story Just a Suggestion and an
excerpt from Dan O'Bannon's unproduced screenplay Omnivore. These
pricy limited editions are aimed squarely at horror collectors, who
will not be disappointed. (Nov.)
