Thanks for reposting these, Frank. I'm working on a short review of THE LONG WAY that should show up there and a couple other places soon. I have a bunch more ready for another Ramsey short story article but I figure I should spread them out a little bit.

They're really good, Matt. I was especially interested in the short stories you chose. The Brood in particular. I also love The Brood, but I remember reading that Ramsey didn't like the story too much on account that he felt it was inadvertently a pulp story he never intended to write. Or did I imagine that? Keep 'em coming, Matt.

Yes, it is – that's what is so great about it. It starts with bleak urban realism and psychological despair and ends with vampire moths. Back of the net!

I didn't realize he was unhappy with "The Brood",I found it lyrical and unsettling. I found it hard choosing a top ten because I like so many of them.
