A collection of genre-bending horror and dark fantasy stories from the award-winning, New York Times-bestselling author of the Matthew Corbett novels.
This edition includes an introduction by international bestselling author Joe R. Lansdale.
Featuring two Bram Stoker Award-winning tales, McCammon's Shoppe of Olde Curiosities is a career-spanning collection gathering nineteen short stories showcasing the author's imaginative range of frightening terror, fantastical worldbuilding, and characters confronting the unknown around them and within themselves.
Pursuing a life of celebrity fame, Erik Van Helsing's desire to cash in on his famous family's name as vampire hunters unveils a legacy he cannot escape in "Blood is Thicker Than Hollywood"-a spinoff tale from the novel They Thirst.
A woman surviving in a post-apocalyptic landscape fights off loneliness when she reads aloud to the "Children of the Bedtime Machine"-a tribute to the wondrous storytelling style of Ray Bradbury.
As "Death Comes for the Rich Man" in 1703 Colonial America, Matthew Corbett is hired to delay the Grim Reaper to give a regretful old sinner time to make amends with his estranged daughter.
Experimenting as a mixologist, McCammon presents five drink recipes in A Little Amber Book of Wicked Shots, accompanying stories about a serial killer in a haunted hotel, an athlete's destiny in the face of cosmic horror, a vindictive ad man learning the price of revenge, and an ex-slave on a suicidal and soul-sacrificing mission to serve justice.
Chilling and evocative, weird and humorous, these stories-and a dozen more-reveal why "no one can paint word pictures as vividly as Robert McCammon" (Sandra Brown).
