I got this fair-condition softcover at a local Savers thrift shop, and was glad to have another release copy. It's an excellent collection of vampire stories, from Polidori's proto-vampire tale through the more up-to-date nightstalkers such as Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's St. Germain, with contributions by Manly Wade Wellman, M. R. James, E. F. Benson, August Derleth, Richard Matheson, and many more. Special favorites include Benson's "The Room in the Tower", C. L. Moore's "Shambleau", and Tanith Lee's "Bite-Me-Not, or Fleur de Feu", but all the stories are worth reading. I like it so well that I have a keeper copy of my own. [Best read a few stories at a time on dark, stormy nights!]
