Advance Praise

PRAISE FOR JAMES SALLIS

“He’s right up there, one of the best. It is quite possible that speaking of Jim Sallis in the same tone as Poe and Dostoevsky is not overblowing on my part. His early work indicates a mind and talent of uncommon dimensions.”—Harlan Ellison, author, “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream”

“Sallis might be one of the best writers in America.”—Les Roberts, author, An Infinite Number of Monkeys 

“Sallis’s writing hovers just at the edge of brilliance.”—Booklist

“Sallis is a rare find . . . a fine prose stylist with an interest in moral struggle and a gift for the lacerating evocation of loss.”—Newsday

“James Sallis’s extraordinary fiction is distinguished by its honesty and meticulous artistry. With his highly imagistic stories, he has regularly displayed a finely honed mastery of sophisticated literary techniques and sharply etched psychological portraits.”—Twentieth-Century Science-Fiction Writers
