Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. This book is so damn good. It contains the single most frightening story I have ever read: The Autopsy. Michael Shea's fiction has been anthologized more than once so you don't need to seek this particular Arkham House edition. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

In "Polyphemus," an exploration team on a desert planet encounters a terrifying alien monstrosity. "The Angel of Death" is the story of a serial killer hunting innocent women who turns out to be a visitor from another world. In the blackly humorous horror story "Uncle Tuggs," a series of grisly and bizarre deaths may be connected to the mysterious disappearance of old Uncle Tuggs. "The Horror on the #33" tells of the strange and horrific monster one man encounters on a city bus. And the highlight of the collection, the classic story "The Autopsy," which Algis Budrys called "one of the most successful meldings of science fiction with horror that I have ever encountered" and which was filmed for Guillermo Del Toro's Netflix series Cabinet of Curiosities, tells of an aging pathologist called in to perform an autopsy-but what he discovers during his examination is chilling and unthinkable . . . Michael Shea (1946-2014) was one of the finest American authors of speculative fiction of modern times, and Polyphemus (1987), originally published as a limited edition hardcover by Arkham House, features the best of his short fiction, in which he deftly blends the genres of horror, fantasy, and science fiction. A landmark collection of modern speculative fiction returns to print at long last in this edition, which features a new introduction by Laird Barron. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
