The King and Other Stories

Illustrated by Glenn Chadbourne.

In his early days as a professional writer, Joe R. Lansdale used to warm up by penning short-short stories, from a few sentences to a few pages. This brief collection includes twenty new, not vintage stories, over half of them previously unpublished. They range from a single sentence to twenty pages long. Each will feature a full-page black and white illustration by Glenn Chadbourne.
