Shapes in the Fire
by M. P. Shiel
August Derleth said M.P. Shiel was "...the Grand Viscount of the Grotesque... [with a] refulgently fanciful imagination and magical command of the English language."
Arthur Machen said, "Here is a wilder wonderland than Poe ever dreamt of... It is Poe, perhaps, but Poe with an unearthly radiance."
Shapes in the Fire is an extraordinary collection of Shiel's work: don't miss it.
