Cemetery Dance has announced that their special signed Limited Edition of A Book of Horrors edited by Stephen Jones, which they’re co-publishing with PS Publishing in the UK, will be returning from the printer later this month, so this is your last chance to place your preorder and have your book ship in the first round of shipping. (All orders received after Monday will have to wait to ship in July.)
Description: Open this book at your own peril! That is because this volume is exactly what it says on the cover — A Book of Horrors contains all-original stories by some of the most successful and exciting names in modern horror fiction.
For the first time in many years, here is an original anthology of horror and dark fantasy in all its many and magnificent guises — from classic pulp-style tales of Dark and Stormy Nights, through more contemporary and psychological terrors, to the type of cutting-edge fiction that only the very best horror fiction can deliver.
Brought together from around the world by World Fantasy Award-winning editor Stephen Jones, one of Britain’s most acclaimed and experienced anthologists of horror fiction, here are many of the authors who have helped shaped the genre in all of its forms, along with terrifying tales of unease by a new generation of storytellers devoted to the Dark Side.
But be warned: once you begin to delve within these pages, your imagination and senses will be assaulted by terrors both grim and gruesome, literary and lethal, that will stay with you long after you have closed its covers and tried to put aside the images and situations which have wormed their way deep within your mind.
Don’t blame us for the bad dreams or cold sweats that these tales will induce. This is A Book of Horrors, and once you open it there is no way that these scarifying stories will ever be forgotten … no matter how much you wish that the nightmares will just go away!
Leading off the anthology is a brand new Stephen King story called “The Little Green God of Agony,” a good old fashioned gothic horror at its best, so this book will be a must have for every Stephen King collector and fan!
Other authors include: original stories by Ramsey Campbell, Peter Crowther, Dennis Etchison, Elizabeth Hand, Brian Hodge, Caitlín R. Kiernan, John Ajvide Lindqvist, Richard Christian Matheson, Reggie Oliver, Robert Shearman, Angela Slatter, Michael Marshall Smith, and Lisa Tuttle!
