We had previously mentioned it will be available in the charity anthology Ghost Stories for Christmas. It is also coming soon to another anthology as well.This anthology, Dark Places Evil Faces Volume II will be available on Halloween from Dark Terror Publications. It will feature Clive’s story, “The Departed” started off the book, and also great horror authors; Ramsey Campbell, Joe R. Lansdale, Mark Lumby, Graham Masterson, Jack Ketchum, Joe X Young and C.H. Baum. It also features a tribute to the late Jack Ketchum by Wrath James Wright. The book is compiled by Mark Lumby, edited by Lisa Tee Tone. Cover art by Tomisalv Tikulin and illustrations by Joe X. Young.
You can pre-order it on Amazon Kindle, or wait for the paperback. Proceeds for the sale go to Rethink Mental Illness.
“The Departed” (also known as “Hermione and the Moon”) first appeared in the New York Times on the 30th of October, 1992, and one day later in the UK in The Guardian Weekend Magazine. It has since appeared in Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror, Sixth Annual Collected in 1993 and Best New Horror, Volume 4. This is where I have it. These books are out of print, and collectors should jump at the change to get this edition if you missed out on this broody Halloween story of Clive’s before.
Thanks to Joe X. Young for contacting us with this news.
