The King in Yellow

<b>'Legendary... A seminal horror work' <i>LA Review of Books</i></b>

<b>'A classic... A fantastic collection' <i>Guardian</i></b>

<b><i>I cannot forget Carcosa where black stars hang in the heavens; where the shadows of men's thoughts lengthen in the afternoon...</i></b>

The weird tales in this book are all linked by a play, the second act of which reveals truths so terrible and beautiful that it drives all who read it to despair: <i>The King in Yellow.</i>

These four macabre, uncanny and unsettling stories are some of the most thrilling ever written in the field of weird fiction and since their first publication have become a cult classic, inspiring works ranging from Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos to <i>True Detective.</i>
