Excellent read condition. Why Wait? Use the Buy It NOW!!! Fear the Fever (Hot Blood, No 7) by Jeff Gelb (Editor), Michael Garrett -- Bulletin: We now rejoin the infamous Hot Blood Series, already in progress. fasten your seatbelts -- this is escapism to the extreme. Let's not beat around the bush. This series consists of erotic horror. Erotic, as in Sexy. Horror, as in grotesque disfigurement, torture, and death. It's not "quiet horror." This might not be your cup of poison tea, says your humble reviewer. If it isn't, that's perfectly okay. Otherwise, should you feel adventurous, be advised -- these stories are, as they say, not for the squeamish. Or prudish. Or easily embarrassed. They're not stories you want people to read over your shoulder in the break room or on the bus. These stories exist to tickle your fancy and your funny bone, to present human foibles in up-close-and-personal, oh-so-revealing detail, and -- can we talk? -- to arouse you with a wink and a nudge. They are not politically correct, sensitive, or subtle. I hope I'm making myself clear. They are so entertaining, however, that several have sold to Showtime's erotic horror series, "The Hunger." I Shudder at Your Touch: 22 Tales of Sex and Horror by Michele Slung (Editor) -- Michele Slung is an editor who knows a good story when she sees one. In this anthology, she mixes classical pieces with modern ones, popular authors with lesser-knowns, and eventually ends up with a collection of short stories that offers many frights, many chills, and a whole lot of fun. The anthology opens with Stephen King's pieces The Revelation of Becka Paulson and closes with a piece by Clive Barker. It's no coincidence that the two biggest names featured in this anthology open and closes the book. Both stories concentrate on women suffering from dementia. They are both unnerving in their own strange little ways. The two masters of horror are at their very best with these stories. Other stories that are worthy of reading in this anthology are Patrick McGrath's Cleave The Vampire, a strange little tale of dementia, Christopher Fowler's The Master Builder, Jonathan Carroll's A Quarter Past You, Robert Hichens's How Love Came to Professor Guildea and Eric McCormack's The Festival. They just don't right 'em like that anymore! All in all, I Shudder At Your Touch is a good anthology that offers many stories that crosses genres and that are often very distubring and terrifying in their own little ways. This anthology made me discover many new authors that I cannot wait to read again, and I'm sure it'll do the same to you. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3559775132
