It came like a malignant shadow with seductive promises of power. And somewhere in the night, a small girl smiled as her mother burned. Asylum inmates slaughtered their attendants. In slimy tunnels, once-human creatures gathered. Madness raged as the lights began to fade and humanity was attacked by an ancient, unstoppable evil. No library descriptions found. |

In the end it was like fudge, the first bite is great, the second and third just okay, and by the tenth you want to throw the thing away, but you have to finish it. In other words, fun but overlong. The ending was like, "I've written enough now."
This edition from Centipede Press also had a story, a Hallowe'en spooker that was good and an interview where Herbert wishes he would be remembered for a book about a dog, which he won't. Centipede does a nice job with the graphics, a Klimt cover and the original paperback cover.
The description for this book is incorrect, as usual for goodreads. There is at least one copy that is not signed, mine. (
