He, he...
kako vam se cine dobitnici?

Nisam ni pretpostavljao da cu za junski broj Polarisa da pisem recenzije dva novopecena Stokera.
Zasto bas Piccirili - "The Misfit Child Grows Fat on Despair"? Prica nije nista posebno, u ovoj zbirci ima i mnogo boljih.  

El Dia De Los Muertos - Brian A. Hopkins! Poptuno zasluzeno. Covek je sjajan pisac, i vrlo je ljubazan i prijateljski nastrojen. Caskamo s vremena na vreme.

Pelanov "The Darker Side" me je iznenadio. Ocekivao sam Richard Chizmar  - "Shivers". Iz CD su mi javili da je ova antologija out of stock.  

Tata Ramsey! Naravno! Sto je to dobra knjiga! Sigurno jedna od najboljih ne-fiktivnih ostvarenja koje sam ikada procitao.

Cekam vase komentare.
Ajde Sideru, navijao si...

vraticu se ponovo....

[Spider Jerusalem]

Ura za Ligotija (iako je tie).
Ura za Frailty.
Ura za Remzu.
bas cu da skinem taj Nightside da vidim sta je to.

moze remzi za kad god dodjes u klub, nja?

[Nyarlathotep]

Moze Remzi, al' sledece nedelje. Trenutno mi jeneophodan jer pisem recenziju. Veceres nosim ghoulu kopiju.
Inace, da li taj bogohulnik kod tebe obitava?

[Spider Jerusalem]

Sledece nedelje - vazi se.

Ne obitava kod mene; ne obitavam ni ja kod sjebe.

[Ghoul]

He he he... Gejman zajebo gej-mana u literaturi za decu!

Inače, My Work Is Not Yet Done" by Thomas Ligotti je najbolja priča ovog majstora modernog horora (a pročitao sam ih mnogo od njega - čovek je genije!).

Bila je jedno kratko vreme online na njegovom sajtu, pa - ko prati stvari i zna gde i šta da traži, to već ima.

Hint: ako dobro pušite, javite se...

[Spider Jerusalem]

Ja cu vam poslati novelu i ako za manje - paklu pljuga. ...Posto ja pusim.
