Conversations with the Weird Tales Circle
Edited by John Pelan and Jerad Walters.
Conversations with the Weird Tales Circle is a celebration of the lives of H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Robert E. Howard, Frank Belknap Long, Seabury Quinn, Hannes Bok, August Derleth, Fritz Leiber, Ray Bradbury, Robert Bloch, and many others. Each writer has their own section in the book, complete with a custom drawing by artist Alex McVey.
The sections contain letters, essays, and memories, with color and black-and-white photographs. This is an important look at a group of people that defined an era.
The book is rounded with head and tail bands, a ribbon marker, black endsheets, and a printed cloth cover.
