description: The stories collected in this volume are in honor of  Weird Tales, a magazine that for generations of fantasy readers held a special magic. It not only succeeded in capturing the interests of its audience--it also has been the most influential magazine in the history of fantasy and horror publishing. These particular stories were taken from the last years of the magazine, beginning in the late 1980s, and will appeal to the mature reader with eclectic taste. Some stories are horror and some are fantasy; some have modern settings and some are set in alternate worlds; some take place in the future and others in the distant past. But all of them have two things in common: great writing and classic storytelling. Includes contributions from F. Paul Wilson, Brian Lumley, Tanith Lee, Tad Williams, Nina Kiriki Hoffman, Robert Bloch and Henry Kuttner, William F. Nolan, &amp; Morgan Llywelyn.
