A brilliant concept. Dick drops you on shifting sands and leaves you to work your own way out.

Gripping horror. The only book that ever made the hairs stand on my back. You'll realise which bit i mean if you'll only read this classic!

A strange and beautiful tale from a convincing, terrifying, alternate world.

Would force a glass eye to pass water if it could read. A beautiful, harrowing tale, carried off with complete conviction. Wonderful

My first love. Not much science in his fiction but who needs it with tales like these? Incredible imagery and child like wonder.

Our dreams and nightmares brought to life. Probably his best with the most terrifying 'Baddies' ever put to print.

Genre straddling tale that pulls the rug out from under you more than once. Really frightening.

A disturbing look at human behaviour, and the ultimate dream.

The tiny world this man is reduced to is so well achieved and believable. I found it very poignant.

Like it says, essential! His work is quite hard to get hold of which seems unforgivable. He is a unique voice in speculative fiction.

This and his other two compilations are musts for horror readers. He is melodramatic and he couldn't write more than paper characters but his monsters are jaw-droppingly terrifying.

Complex and thought provoking about materialism and identity. How can you be sure of your past, of your own physicality, when science has got this sophisticated? Needs re-reading again and again ...

Sometimes a little slow and understated for modern tastes. If you can handle a little extra work you will not be disappointed. Along with Sheridan Le Fanu this is the best that subtle horror gets.
