I just saw this on amazon as being co-authored by T M Wright and a mr Ramsey Campbell... but unfortunately there's no useful product info.

Can you shed some light on this Mr C?

It's very strange, as is the introduction. And the introducer.

A Manhattan Ghost Story must be one of the greatest horror novels ever written - it's just brilliant.

I have to agree with that. I also think that his novel The Last Vampire is one of the best vampire books ever written. I wasn't massively impressed by The Laughing Man but I've pretty much loved all his other books that I've read.

I have The Last Vampire on my to-read pile. It's been there for 10 years... I really need to get that pile thinned out.

It'll take 2 days maximum to read and you'll still have the ending in your head in 20 years.

2 days? You don't realise how little reading time I have these days. It took me three months to Read Apartment 16.

I started it and couldn't put it down. Once you start it, you'll make the time to finish it.
