A collection of short stories and novellas by respected Belgian horror writer Eddy C. Bertin. In a writing career spanning over forty years, his stories have been published in such prestigious books and magazines as The Pan Book of Horror Stories, The Year’s Best Horror Stories and Cemetery Dance. Fourteen tales are included in this volume, from strange, hauntingly dreamlike stories, to tales of madness and madmen, to powerful horror yarns in the tradition of H. P. Lovecraft’s "Cthulhu Mythos". Published in English, Shadow Publishing is the first to bring together a selection of the author’s stories under one cover.

NIGHTMARE TALES OF HORROR

Fourteen tales of dreamlike terror, madness and out and out freezing cold horror!

Something Small... something hungry is haunting Circus Morbani... and killing, or are they just suicides? Boro the odd job man knows something, but he isn’t telling. Yvana the fortune teller knows something and horror awaits. And detectives Gary and Lon are stumped. A mysterious and shocking tale set in an old-world circus.

In the town of Dunwich, on the windswept east coast, Henry VIII’s soldiers are implementing the king’s decree at Greyfriars monastery. But Dunwich holds a dark secret. What is it that comes from the sea and is causing the town to disappear under the waves? A tale in the tradition of H. P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos.

Danny Veermeet is in the UK writing a story on old London. The Underground looks like a great theme for his magazine article, but terrifying is loose down there that no one else has noticed. Danny sees something though and is drawn into a horror so grim and grisly that the truth has been withheld by the authorities. A novella that brings HLP’s Cthulhu Mythos into the heart of the metropolis!

Another excellent review of Eddy Bertin's collection, by Mario Guslandi, can be found at Rick Kleffel's "The Agony Column" website: http://www.bookotron.com/agony/revie...ng_horror.html.

Once again Sutton's effort is worthwhile, offering to today's readers the opportunity to taste the atmospheres created by an author perfectly at ease with the canons of horror fiction, yet able to provide every time a note of originality and creativity.

[neverending]

You realize that Lovecraft's Dunwich was in Massachusetts, USA, long, long after Henry VIII's time, Eddy?
