Summary: something to "crow" about!
Comment: I am only half-way through this anthology but I could wait no longer to share my thoughts about this wonderful, new,(to me anyway),discovery!The horror/fantasy field has a hope for survival and his name is Peter Crowther!Actually I had heard of the author before because I read "Escardy Gap" when it first came out in pb and was pleasantly surprised-some of it's imagery has remained with me to this day.But since it was a collaboration,and I never noticed anything with the same name published, I thought it was a one shot and forgot about it... until...this past week I happened upon this collection and knew that the author's name sounded a chord somewhere in my memory.
Well,pardon me while I gush!I can't believe this was originally published in '84-and it's just now coming to my attention.The thing that makes Mr.Crowther so different is really his wonderful way of making me recall the stories i grew up reading by the masters of the "golden age":Bradbury,(of course),Matheson,
Beaumont,Sturgeon,Kuttner,Brown...but Crowther gives this nostalghia a twist of modern perversity-almost stomach-churning at times,but then subtly creepy at others.And I like the way he switches back and forth between American and British locales and idioms.
Please keep producing what "what nightmares are made of",as you do so well Mr. Crowther-I can't wait for the next ride-I would read anything you write-that's a testimonial!You have been gifted with the legacy of the masters!
