From New York Times bestselling author Douglas Clegg comes the Bram Stoker Award-winning collection The Nightmare Chronicles -- 13 spine-tingling tales of dark mystery, supernatural thrills and twisted horror which qcan chill the spine so effectively that the reader should keep paramedics on standby, q says bestselling author Dean Koontz. aClegg brings his stories together with a chilling fictive conceit....The effect is dangerously seductive.a -- Locus aClegg's (The Halloween Man, etc.) collection of 13 tales takes risks and is full of passions that sometimes burst forth violentlyabClegg's use of innovative metaphors catapults each story beyond a landscape crowded with the horror genre's usual monsters and madmen into a territory he alone can claim.a a Publisheras Weekly aabLike M.
