Editorial reviews

The fourth volume of Selected Stories of Manly Wade Wellman is a grab bag of pulpy horror, paranormal paranoia, and supernatural escapades. Less thematically cohesive than the previous three volumes and the fifth and final volume, these are standalone stories that run the gamut of the occult. Wellman's extraordinary fiction earned him both the Edgar Allan Poe Award and the World Fantasy Award.

Due to his deep voice, prolific performer Brian Troxell is especially gifted at voicing manly men, from laconic cowboys to Southern gentlemen. This volume is full of characters who thrive in Troxell's microphone, whether they're escaping a chilling killer or they're the killer themselves.
