Cave, Clark Ashton Smith, Manly Wade Wellman (who was one of my mentors, I'm proud to say) -- then you'll love these tales. Many of them would have had pride of place in any issue of Weird Tales in the 30s or 40s.\"--Al Sarrantonio, author of Skeletons, Moonbane, and Halloween and Other Seasons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eABOUT THE AUTHOR: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDavid Niall Wilson has been writing and publishing horror, dark fantasy, and science fiction since the mid-eighties.

The perfect novel for a hot, sultry night.\" - J. L. Comeau - CountGore.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor This is My Blood: \"Wilson's prose is smooth and powerful, carrying its allegorical weight with grace.
