Crazy Quilt: The Best Short Stories of Ardath Mayhar
Release date: 2009
"Ardath Mayhar is a neglected writer, and that is criminal. She is one of those born storytellers and natural writers who has done so much so well that it is easy to take her for granted. Trust me, as the spider said to the fly: read Ardath's work. Be captivated by her worlds. They will never let you go. Promise."
– from the Introduction by Joe R. Lansdale
