Before I buy the "Brighton Shock" book (from PS), does anyone know what's by Ramsey in the anthology? Is it a formerly unpublished story, is it a non-fiction, an essay? And what title?
Thanks for any enlightment.

I've just checked "BRIGHTON SHOCK" table of contents on Steve Jones's website. There appears to be the "A CASE OF DAVID" title by Ramsey Campbell. Is it a story or is it, maybe, a non-fiction about David Case, who also appears in the anthology? Maybe an interview with the author?
Well, thanks for shedding any light!

Giancarlo, it's an essay about Dave Case and his work - an expansion of my introduction to Brotherly Love. The book also contains my tale "The Guide".

Ah yes, "The Guide" from 'Waking Nightmares'... a cracking little ode to M.R. James that would have made a great 'Ghost Story for Christmas'.

'The Guide' is one of my very favourite Ramsey tales. In fact, I'd say it's one of Ramsey's perfect short stories - in its edited form for the audio version that he produced. Less is more!
