I’ve just added several new anthologies to the Wizard’s Tower bookstore. They are all from Prime, and therefore all at the great £2.99 price. They are:
- Vampires: The Recent Undead, edited by Paula Guran
- Halloween, edited by Paula Guran
- New Cthulhu: The Recent Weird, edited by Paula Guran
- Creatures: Thirty Years of Monsters, edited by John Langan & Paul Tremblay
- Lightspeed: Year One, edited by John Joseph Adams
Vampires from Paula Guran contains a selection of recently written short stories about the toothy undead, including contributions from Holly Black, Caitlin R. Kiernan and Kim Newman.
Halloween is another of Paula’s anthologies, this one being a celebration of the season of things going bump in the night. Authors include H.P. Lovecraft, Thomas Ligotti and Peter Straub.
Still with Paula, New Cthulhu features modern stories influenced by H.P. Lovecraft, with authors including Neil Gaiman, Elizabeth Bear, China Miéville, Sarah Monette and Charlie Stross.
Creatures from John Langan & Paul Tremblay is a survey of thirty years of big, bad nasties. Authors include Clive Barker, Kelly Link and Jeff VanderMeer.
Finally we have Lightspeed: Year One, in which JJA picks his favorites from the stories he has published in the first year of Lightspeed magazine.
All of them fabulous value. Much as I love paper, the trade paperback editions are around three times the price, and mostly only available in the USA.

Not Paula?
I could have sworn I cut and pasted that. *sigh*
Thanks!
Was it correct in the original? Maybe you did C&P it…
That might have taken us all the way back to the Prime website, but actually it is correct in my bookstore so obviously I didn’t C&P.
