I *love* NEVERLAND. I think it is horror's TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, and one of my all-time favorite books in horror or any genre. Doug is an important influence on me as a reader and writer, and was the first person I asked to write a blurb for my first book.

I have the first mass market paperback, before they split it in two. That thing is a little brick of a book. Maybe some day I'll finish it. I want to say I made it a hundred or so pages, but never finished it. I have to say, though I've liked his later works, Books of Blood was the best of Clive. I've enjoyed some of his novels (Weaveworld and The Great and Secret Show) but his longer work tends to veer too far into fantasy for my tastes. I haven't read all of his novels, so that may not be universally true. But it was my experience with what I've read. |

The trade paperback of Imajica plus the hardcover anthology of the Shannara trilogy were what pushed me into buying an ereader back in the day. I felt like I needed to find a gym and start pumping iron just to be able to read those doorstops!

Not sure if this is horror or science fiction. But I have a soft spot for creepy stories of UFO abductions.
The Others by Jeremy Robinson is $0.99 at Amazon US. Quote:

Also, I just bought The Tribe (ebook). I haven't seen the Paperbacks From Hell go on sale yet, so I just pick them up from time-to-time.
