Several Vault readers nominated Charles’ debut anthology as their most treasured book of 2007 and here’s a second volume. I don’t have a copy yet, but just look at that wonderful line-up! It is to be hoped that a third Book Of Horror will be published toward the end of this year.
It is to be hoped that a review will appear here soon, but don’t let that put you off your enjoyment. For now, I know how much work Mr. Black and his contributors have put into this, and my sincere respect and congratulations to them all.

I might add that this second book of gruesome tales is an absolute gem and I’m very proud to be a part of it.

“The new Herbert Van Thal” is playing a blinder, and I gather a third book will be published toward the end of the year. Congratulations to you and all the other contributors to this most welcome series!

This is an excellent anthology. So much great stuff inside – special mention for The Crimson Portrait plus Now And Forever More – but they’re all good.
