About This Item
[London]: A Star Book Published by the Paperback Division of W. H. Allen & Co. Ltd, [1979]. First edition. A fine, unread copy. (#168798) (29598). Small octavo, pictorial wrappers. Signed by Campbell. "A thoroughly chilling book ..." - Barron (ed), Horror Literature 4-66. "Giving oneself over to Campbell's writing feels a bit like losing one's mind. Sounds are heightened, perceptions warped, and squalor becomes synonymous with horror. Reading his books, you begin to feel that your room needs to be scrubbed clean, that bugs are crawling over your skin, and that the city is driving you mad." - Grady Hendrix, Paperbacks from Hell: The Twisted History of '70s and '80s Horror Fiction, p. 123. Barron (ed), Fantasy and Horror (1999) 6-69.
