Ennui And Other States of Madness

Ennui and Other States of Madness is David Niall Wilson's definitive short story collection spanning his career as a horror and dark fantasy writer. Containing seventeen stories. Three of the stories are original to the collection, and one, "The Preacher's Marsh" is a novella. With an introduction by Brian Hodge this is one of the biggest and best productions of the writer's career. A must have for the horror and dark fantasy enthusiast. " Ennui's touchstones with the past are sometimes overt -- like the historical time frames of the opening title story and its anchoring closer, "The Preacher's Marsh", as well the other stops between -- but more often it's as if the past has given the present a deep, lingering soul kiss. And just try reading "When Words Collide" without thinking of Rod Serling giving it his tight-lipped smile of approval." -- From the Introduction by Brian Hodge - Author of Wild Horses & Mad Dogs. Praise For Deep Blue: "Wilson demonstrates that a horror novel doesn't need gallons of blood to succeed, that spiritual terror can be even more effective." -- Publisher's Weekly
