About This Title:
Thrillers
edited by Richard Chizmar
Authors: Rex Miller, Nancy A. Collins, Chet Williamson, Ardath Mayhar
This volume marks the exciting debut of a brand new series of dark fiction.
Within these pages, you'll find terror, suspense, and mystery waiting around
each corner -- tales that range from quietly menacing to shockingly graphic,
wildly fantastic to grimly realistic. Supernatural to psychological. It's all
her, with one universal ingredient: a well-told story. As Joe R. Lansdale comments
in his Introduction: "The word thriller normally means a thrill a minute,
a page turner, but in the case of the following stories, and I'm sure other
stories that will appear in the series, I believe the term will have to be broadened..."
The formula for the Thrillers series is deceptively simple: we invite
four of the genre's most popular authors to each contribute 20,000 words of
original, never-before-published fiction. We add insightful Afterwords by each
author, a dozen full-page interior illustrations by Keith Minnion, and a guest
Introduction. The end result is a wonderful showcase for the finest of today's
short fiction. Limited Edition is protected inside a handmade cloth slipcase
and signed by editor Richard Chizmar, Introduction writer Joe Lansdale, and
all four of the authors!
