WHAT I’M READING NOW: A VERY STRANGEHOUSE CHRISTMAS edited by Sean Ferrari and AFTER DARK by Manly Wade Wellman

I’ve read all the StrangeHouse books so far (hell, I wrote one of them), so why should I stop now? As far as AFTER DARK goes, I forgot I owned this book. It’s a John the Balladeer novel. I didn’t expect to run into John so soon after my last foray into SHADOWS, but I’m always glad to encounter him.
