aka Lovers & other MonstersFrom the dust jacketMarvin Kaye's new collection of over fifty stories, poems, and a short play presents the darker and supernatural aspects of love—whether romantic, sexual, brotherly or decidedly unusual. The cast of lovers—or, perhaps, monsters—includes wives and husbands, prostitutes and princesses, ghosts and demons, machines and computers, vampires, aliens and even a winged goddess. Of particular note are: Anne Rice's only published short story "Master of the Rampling Gate," a tale of vampiric seduction. Ray Bradbury's "The Maiden," a story that until now has never been reprinted since its first appearance in 1947. Mary Higgins Clark's "Voices in the Coalbin," an evocative tale of love and possession. Morgan Lllywelyn's "Princess," a sly re-interpretation of a familiar fairy tale. Dashiell Hammett's "In the Morgue," a little-known short story by a master of detective fiction. And Jack Moffitt's solution to the classic tale by Frank R. Stockton, "The Lady or the Tiger?" (which is also included). Table of ContentsIntroductionOdd CouplesPoul Anderson – Journeys EndJerome Bixby and Joe E. Dean – Share AlikeC. H.
