It forms the baseline against which the new variations may be measured. It is not a denial of flexibility; it is something to be flexible with.Preface by Ramsey Campbell, fascinating introduction by Price, beautiful cover art by Gahan Wilson, and 26 tales by Campbell, Lumley, Sutton, Wagner, Tierney, Lupoff, Ligotti, Burleson, Rainey and others.
