Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} In a Lonely Place by In a Lonely Place by Karl Edward Wagner. In a Lonely Place by Karl Edward Wagner (Collected 1983): This mid-1980’s collection of short stories and novellas by Wagner includes probably his most famous story, the award-winning “Sticks” from the mid-1970’s. Wagner, who died too young in 1995, was a major writer, publisher and anthologist in the horror, dark-fantasy, and sword-and-sorcery genres for more than 20 years, with his annual Year’s Best Horror anthology from DAW pretty much setting the gold standard for genre ‘Best of’ collections from the early 1980’s until Wagner’s death and resultant cancellation of the series. Here, we get many of his best horror stories, including the forementioned “Sticks”, a whopper of a Lovecraft homage that also references the artwork and lifestory of pulp illustrator . Did the makers of The Blair Witch Project read “Sticks” at some point? If not, it’s an incredible coincidence. Other stories bounce off Lovecraft, and Robert Chambers’ seminal in interesting and productive ways, all without requiring any actual knowledge of the references for readerly enjoyment. The novella “Beyond Any Measure” remains, nearly thirty years after its first appearance, one of the five or six cleverest vampire stories ever written. Highly recommended .

Episode 9 ‘Where the Summer Ends’-A Thousand Stealthy Assassins w/ guests Michael Bukowski and Tim Mucci. Where the Summer Ends. Originally Published: , August 1980, edited by Kirby McCauley. Drink Pairing: Monkey Shoulder Batch 27 and Stewart’s Root Beer. I was honored having two amazing guests this week. Tim Mucci, who was in Episode 7 discussing River of Night’s Dreaming, and Michael Bukowski, artist of Yog-Blogsoth fame and Seventh Church Ministries, really added a lot to the discussion. Check out Mike’s version of the Kudzu Devil here. If you haven’t seen his work before you are in for a real treat, as mentioned in the episode he is nearing completion on his project started years ago to draw every creature mentioned in the works of H. P. Lovecraft. In addition to that project, his work often pops up on album covers and books. Now on to the hot links! Pseudopod Episode 560-Where the Summer Ends here. George R. R.

WARNING: EPISODE CONTAINS CONTENT RELATED TO SEXUAL VIOLENCE. The River of Night’s Dreaming. Originally published: Whispers III edited by Stuart David Schiff (1983) Awards: Nominated for 1982 Balrog for Short Fiction, Nominated 1982 World Fantasy for Best Novella. Whiskey Pairing: Kings County Distillery Straight Bourbon. (Special note: Wagner fan Lincoln Brown, pointed out the Afterward of the Scream Press version of In a Lonely Place. You have to check it out! It tells about Wagner’s dream that he based the story on and calls out the title as being a reference to a lyric from The Rocky Horror Picture Show-“The darkness must flow down the river of night’s dreaming…”. Lastly, the ending is a purposeful parallel to The End by The Doors, Wagner also reveals the protagonist is a male who is identifying as a female! This blows my mind, thanks again Lincoln. Looks like it’s already time for a re-read.) This story is a rabbit hole. We could spend an entire season talking about Robert Chambers’s The King in Yellow (1895), but we kept it brief. It truly is an amazing collection. You can read it for free here. Once again I mention a story from the Wagner website. Check that out here. It’s where I learned about the attitudes Wagner had about shock therapy, and the treatment of patients in some of the hospitals he worked at. For any of you law abiding citizens out there, I bought The Hunger Season 1, Episode 16 so I could watch the adaptation of the story…it was just as bad as I hoped. I have a bonus episode with some special guests in the works for early next year reviewing that episode, and Season 2, Episode 20 The Double, based on Wagner’s story Beyond Any Measure . I spoke with Justin Steele editor and reviewer extraordinaire last summer at Necronomicon 2017. We were talking about Wagner and he pointed me in the direction of the story D T by Laird Barron. In this story there is a thinly veiled version of Wagner in the story towards the end of his career. There are easter eggs galore in this story, Barron weaves them all into a short doppelganger tale. To get my hands on this story I bought A Season in , a collection of new King in Yellow Stories edited by Joe Pulver. I was delighted to find that in addition to D T , both Joe Pulver in his story Not Enough Hope and John Langan in his story Sweetums , give nods to Wagner. Karl Edward Wagner only wrote one King in Yellow tale but it has definitely rippled down the years as both important and part of the Carcosa cannon. A very special thanks to our guest Tim Mucci. He rocked! Episode 6 ‘The Fourth Seal’- And Behold A Pale Horse. Link to the blog entry where John Mayer talks about Wagner’s suspension from medical school. here. Link to ‘The Last Interview’ in Dark Troubador Magazine here Though I called it the last interview in the episode it is only one of the last. The last interview was done by Bradley H. Sinor for Horror Magazine Issue #5 . You can read that interview on karledwardwagner.org here. Readers: Malcolm Mills, Laura Maxfield. Episode 5 ‘.220 Swift’ Part 2 – Machen to Howard to Wagner. For an in depth reading of Howard’s Men of the Shadows and the pictish connection to Machen’s work I suggest Nameless Tribes: Robert E. Howard’s Anthropological World-Building in “Men of the Shadows” by Jeffrey Shanks in Skelos 1 : The Journal of Weird Fiction and Dark Fantasy. As a further connection to Brandon and Bran Mak Morn we see Wagner using the same Persephone motif in his Mak Morn pastiche Legion from the Shadows in the Chapter entitled Proserpina and Dis.
