    Thanks, Ron. I actually like all three categories you mention but since I want to like the guy's writing and coming-of-age horror always has a special place maybe I'll track down Ghoul. I picked up an e-book a while back of Girl on the Glider so I might just start with that, but maybe not. Appreciate the recommendations.

    Cool, I'm doing the same. There was a lot I liked from In Concert and the title story was incredible but other than a few random short stories in anthologies that's all I've read from her. I'm looking forward to it as well, and had the impression it was going to release some time around her husband's but in looking through my emails I couldn't find anything to substantiate that. Her passing probably caused some delays--it's a shame she never got to see what I'm sure will be a beautiful, definitive collection of her short work.

    I can't say that I've read a whole bunch of Keene's work. The Cage is probably the only longer work of his that I've read and I thought it was okay. I had few other of his signed limited editions I meant to read, but wound up selling to fund another purchase. I've been also meaning to check out Girl on the Glider for a while, but have been putting off that purchase due to other books being announced that have drained the funds. I'm sure I'll get to it someday...

    So I can't figure out why my pictures are coming out sideways, but I figured I'll post them anyways.

    I was happy to finally find a decent priced copy of the following book.

    In Concert by Steve Rasnic Tem and Melanie Tem:
