Wow! What an “A” listing of writers, editor and cover illustrator. I’ve pre-ordered “Children” and I’m particularly happy for two things. First, you’re still writing Mythos short fiction. Second, that Richard Kadrey is contributing a story– one with a killer title. Thanks for making my Monday morning, Mr. Barron.
I like Kadrey and am interested to see what he comes up with here. Mine isn’t particularly Mythos-related, but it has a cosmic horror angle.
Well, I tend to conflate, as perhaps some readers do, Mythos with cosmic horror. I remain relieved that you’re still writing cosmic horror. Now, counting the days to September…
I am particularly looking forward to this and Autumn Cthulhu.
I love the Mike Mignola cover. So many books have bland cover artwork or no artwork at all now. I’m this is not the case.
