Editorial Review: Product Description: ''Read by Dawn'' is the new annual collection of modern horror writing, published under the Bloody Books imprint. Imprint curator Adele Hartley is the Director of the ''Dead by Dawn'', Scotland's International Horror Film Festival. ''Dead by Dawn'' is a member of the European Fantastic Film Festivals Federation and a major feature of the international horror film and festival network. To coincide with the festival turning 13 in April 2006, Adele will be publishing the first annual ''Read by Dawn'' collection which she has invited Ramsey Campbell to host, including an opening new story. Ramsey is recognised as Britain's most respected living horror writer, and his short stories and novels have been giving readers nightmares for many years. Film-goers haven't been spared, though, as his novels ''The Nameless'' and ''Pact of the Fathers'', both made spine-chilling movies. We hope the annual ''Read by Dawn'' collection will establish itself quickly as an international celebration of the best in contemporary horror. With stories by: Ramsey Campbell, David McGillveray, Jeff Jacobson, Michele Lee, Brian G Ross, Scott Brendel, Brian Rosenberger, Rayne Hall, Katherine A Patterson, Justin Madison, Amanda Lawrence Auverigne, David Hutchison, Bryce Stevens, Ralph Robert Moore, Stefan Pearson, Patricia MacCormack, Joe L Murr, Lavie Tidhar, Andrew K Wilson, Stephanie Bedwell-Grime, Matt Wedge, Samuel Minier, James Reilly, David Turnbull, John Llewellyn Probert and Chet Gottfried.

Average Rating:
 Rating: - Bound to Become a Classic of the GenreThe stories in 'Read By Dawn' involve very little 'slash, blood and gore'. They don't need it. Instead, they captivate the readers' imaginations with intrigueing plot devellopments. The chill factor stems from the fact that almost any of these stories could really happen. In most of these storiess, the protagonists could be you or I, or the parent or child next door. The opening situations are familiar. As readers, we recognize the worlds in which these people live, their routines and daily concerns. We know something bad is going to happen - something very bad indeed. The authors skilfully lead us on, luring us deeper and deeper into their stories as events spiral out of control. Some protagonists ... Read More: |
