Sobre este artículo
Grantham, New Hampshire: Borderlands Press, 2003. Stated at limitation page: "This signed edition of borderlands 5 is limited to 500 copies. This is number '206'". Signed by all twenty-seven contributors at limitation pages including Stephen King. Very attractive. The anthology's closing story is by Stephen King, titled "Stationary Bike," and has never been published elsewhere. This volume also features an additional twenty-four never-before-published short stories by: Gary Braunbeck, John R. Platt, Holly Newstein, Adam Corbin Fusco, Barry Hoffman, Bill Gauthier, Whitt Pond, Jon F. Merz, Michael Canfield, John Farris, Brian Freeman, Dominick Cancilla, Whitley Strieber, Barbara Malenky, Bentley Little, John McIlveen, Darren O. Godfrey, David J. Schow, Brett Alexander Savory, Gene O'Neill, Lon Prater, Tom Piccirilli, L. Lynn Young, and, Bev Vincent. Dark java leather or leather-like textured boards, sharp gilt impressed cover and spine titles, fine. Pages fine, sharp. Light brown and tan marbled front and back endpapers. Bind fine; hinges intact. Striking pictorial dust wrapper, fine; unclipped 75.00, protected in new clear sleeve. Wrap-around glossy cover art features surreal egg pods rising from setting sun purples and blues mountainous landscape. Apparently, one of twenty-six of the limited five hundred, preserved and presented in deep black buckram (cloth) slip-case. This anthology carries on the tradition and high standards established by the first four volumes in the Borderlands series. Each short begins with a brief introduction by the editors whose intention is to publish new original short fiction expanding the limits of dark imaginative fiction. Writers on parade here are exploring new territories and scorching new paths through the jagged landscapes of our collective minds. And they don't have to be enjoyed on a dark stormy night with a fireplace of glowing embers and a whipping wind howling across the moors! These tales can be read under the clear light of day-time and they will still warp your sense of time and reality. Aficionados will not find any of the traditional boogeymen, ghosts or vampires. Not to be found here are stories of zombies, werewolves, mummies, succubi, or Hitchcockian spouses plotting to do in their mates! Six pages of short biographies for all contributors at back. Printed in the United States of America. 281 pages. Insured post.. Signed by Authors. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Illus. by Willy, Michael (Wrapper Art). 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.
