Synopsis
Editors Jones and Newman have paired horror's leading authors with the genre's milestones, featuring Peter Straub on Stephen King, Nell Gaiman on Anthony Boucher, Joe R. Lansdale on Ray Bradbury, Edgar Allan Poe on Nathaniel Hawthorne, Clive Barker on Christopher Marlowe, and many equally inspired matches.
The book consists of reviews of 100 books in chronological order, ranging from 1592 (Marlow's Doctor Faustus) to 1987 (Campbell's Dark Feasts). Unlike Pringle's seminal 100 Best books, this book features reviews from 100 different reviewers, so there are inevitable variances in taste, style and approach.
The books and authors covered in this volume are the basis for our Horror: 100 Best Books list.
