description: In 1988, 100 contemporary authors responded to invitations by the editors to contribute short essays on their favorite horror books. Most of the books included are novels, but there are also anthologies and single-author short story collections.Starting with Marlowe's Doctor Faustus (1592), and ending with Ramsey Campbell's collection, Dark Feasts (1987), this book fills the ground in between with great variety, including not only old chestnuts but a few surprises as well.
