This looks like a real beauty - just wish I could afford it! http://www.cemeterydance.com/page/CDP/PROD/pelan01 The Century's Best Horror - including Ramsey, of course. |

...and our very own Joel Lane! Looks a very tasty set that. Hmmm... Mind you, if I was to scout around a lot, I might find I already have a hell of a lot of those (he typed, hoping to put himself off wanting the books). |

>>...and our very own Joel Lane!<< I know. I noticed that and actually added Joel's name to the list of authors when I posted it as news on the BFS site - but I forgot to mention Joel here. Sorry, Joel! And very well done to you too. |

No worries. I snuck into the book due to its 'one story per year, one story per author' rule, which made for a few lucky breaks. None the less the line-up contains many classics and fascinating rarities. Great to see this finally being printed. It waited several years for copyright clearance and the circulation of signing sheets. Definitely a landmark anthology. |

Don't be so modest! Your story wouldn't be in there if it didn't deserve to be! |

Another century's best?! Egad, I've read three so far (Mystery, Noir, and now just about finishing Suspense), plus the massive Horror sorta-one by Hartwell... I don't know if I can't take another one! Congrats to Joel, and all others in it. Hmm... I notice both Gary Brandner's "The Price of a Demon" and Eddy C. Bertin's "Like Two White Spiders" in it, though both were in the same DAW Year's Best Horror Anthology (vol. II). Wassup wit dat?! |

Because the DAW volume II is selected from the second and third volumes of the original British series, Craig. |
