STEPHEN GALLAGHER
Screenwriter and novelist
Signature collection of short stories from the past two decades. Published simultaneously in a trade edition and a limited slipcased hardcover edition, numbered and signed by both the author and legendary writer-producer Brian Clemens, who contributes the introduction.
It's a cliché, I know, but I honestly could not put the book down. Steve has written a stunning array of proper short stories, not theamorphous, all-glittering prose with finally an ambiguous, barely discernible pointkind, but rather hard, strong yarns, beautifully structured, finely characterised and filled with not only readable but also speakable, ruthlessly real dialogue calculated to amplify character and advance the plot of each little jewel.
From the introduction by Brian Clemens.
