Scar City

A new collection from one of the most powerful voices in in slipstream and horror writing is a significant event. This collection of twenty two stories was one of the last that Joel Lane put together before his death in 2013. Frequently taking the form of urban fantasy, with his home city of Birmingham as their nucleus, these are intense and often painful stories that linger in the mind for a long time. This book also contains a substantial essay by Nina Allan examining Joel; Lane's 'Blue' trilogy of novels.
