This double issue of long-lived horror reviews journal DEAD RECKONINGS features regular columnist Ramsey Campbell, six pungent reviews from the formidable S. T. Joshi, and a wealth of original reviews of new and noteworthy horror releases in all media.
Recent fiction releases covered include John Langan's THE FISHERMAN, Michael Cisco's THE WRETCH OF THE SUN, and Michael Griffin's THE LURE OF DEVOURING LIGHT. Editor Tony Fonseca contributes a substantial article, "Aickman’s Women and Archetypal Horror", while Chris Dallis celebrates the semicentennial of the giallo film. A special section on Chet Williamson includes an interview with the author and reviews of his two latest releases. All in all, this release forms a very welcome addition to the bookshelves of any horror aficionado. Also included is a comprehensive index to the last ten issues.
This double issue marks the departure of editors June M. Pulliam and Tony Fonseca. Many thanks are due to them for their efforts!
DEAD RECKONINGS will be relaunching in 2017 under a new editorship and with a broader scope.
