Reviewing the Mail: Week of December 7, 2024

One book this week, which actually did come in the mail:

In the Mad Mountains, a reprint collection of H.P. Lovecraft-inspired stories by Joe R. Lansdale. It has eight stories that originally appeared - mostly in anthologies, mostly from small presses - between 2009 and 2015, and the titles look varied and obscure enough that probably only the very most passionate Lansdale fans would have all of those books.

This book, on the other hand, is a new trade paperback, from Tachyon Publications, available wherever books are sold at a very reasonable price. It was published in October, the traditional time for spooky stories.

I personally have not read much Lansdale, and keep thinking I should. So having this on the shelf will be a good inducement - that may work for you as well.
