GALLERY OF HORROR
In this collection of grisly and terrifying stories you will find your darkest fears depicted – a phantom seen in a mirror reflection at midnight which becomes only too real… a weird girl who practices a rather different kind of vampirism… a malignant, inexorable intelligence which lurks in murky oil deposits beneath the earth’s bony crust… These and other black gems of the fantasist’s art await your discovery – if you dare to look within…
“Should send your goose-pimples squawking”
– The Times
“Leiber’s imagined fragments of dark have a tactile quality about them such as only the best writers in the genre achieve”
– Times Literary Supplement
