December 2001 Catalog - Publisher: Night Shade Books
This gem of a small publisher started in 1997 with the goal of bringing out not just high quality reprints of impossible to find older works, but the best of some of the newer not-as-well-known-as-they-should-be writers. So far, their track record has been impressive. New out for this month is the third volume in the Manly Wade Wellman collection, a completely new John Shirley novel and, mistakenly not listed last month, a new novel from Tim Lebbon.

AFTER SHOCKS edited by Jeremy Lassen - HC. Lovecraft and King both wrote about New England, but King's setting will never be confused with Lovecraft's. The same can be said about the 12 terrifying, highly contrasting stories taking place all over Southern California.

Includes stories by Nancy Holder, Michael Scott Bricker, Christa Faust, Jak Koke, Brian Hodge and others. ... $21.00
TAGGING THE MOON by S. P. Somtow - HC. These ten tales take place in a surreal City of Angels where the hard life of day to day survival collides with twisted myths, legends and the fears that lurk underneath humanity's masks -- these aren't Mother Goose stories by any stretch of the imagination. Limited to 100 numbered, slipcased copies. Signed by S.P. Somtow, John Picario and the artist GAK. ... $55.00
