Eye
International Horror Guild Award nominee 2001.
Has it really been over two years since David J. Schow's last short story collection? Well, all that changes this Fall with Eye, featuring thirteen more trapdoors, keyholes and covert ops, all designed to ensnare you, rivet your attention, and maybe even scare you breathless. Take a look at the craft of murder, from either side of the window. Feast your eyes on some of the most lethally magnetic women in fiction. Get a gander at the world's most scatalogical crime boss, spooky guys from outer space, monsters disguised as people, and actual humans with powers no less monstrous. Oh, yes, and Mexican wrestlers.
Schow's previous collection, Crypt Orchids, sold out within a month of publication. You have been warned. This collection contains several rare stories, such as “2¢ Worth,” plus several more appearing here for the first time, like “Watcher of the Skies.”
The special Lettered State of Eye contains a bonus story, written especially for this edition and never before published.
Eye. Keep yours peeled.
