|
| THE STAFF HERE CHERISHES TWO THINGS ABOVE ALL: |
|
| HORROR/FANTASY LITERATURE, AND RATS. TO KNOW THESE |
|
| WELL IS TO NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN. |
|
| From our own experience, searching through dark and dusty used book |
|
| stores and out of the way libraries for the classic works of imagination is |
|
| very much like embarking on a treasure hunt. We have discovered many |
|
| of our favorite novels in the shadowy depths of silverfish-riddled boxes |
|
| and high on warped wood shelves alongside tomes of a completely |
|
| different nature. Often, finding a rare gem is as memorable an experience |
|
| as reading it. If you have any personal tales of bizarre bookstores and |
|
| unearthing classic fantasy or horror, email us! |
|
| So, we all have our own list of treasures. Here are some of ours, but
|
|
| again, we welcome comments from you and would like to add your all |
|
| time favorites to the list. Send them in...... |
