Chambers. The newest addition to the Haunted Library Horror Classics series!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWho dares to read The King in Yellow?\u003cbr\u003eA man pursued by a church organist who wants his soul. An artist plagued by repeated sightings of a watchman who looks like a coffin worm. Ghosts, wayward cats, and scientific dabblings with dire consequences. Each of these ten tales is chilling in its own right, but taken together, they weave a wickedly eerie spell that is sure to enthrall.\u003cbr\u003eUnited by vague references to a play with the same name, which never appears in the book-a play that \"induces despair or madness in those who read it\"-The King in Yellow is undoubtedly Robert W. Chambers' finest work. The book quickly gained an influence over generations of writers of \"weird tales,\" long before there was even a name for them. H. P. Lovecraft greatly admired the book, hailing it as achieving \"notable heights of cosmic fear.\"\u003cbr\u003eChambers' genius will take readers to the most horrifying place of all-their own imaginations.\u003cbr\u003eThis beautiful new reprint includes an introduction by creator and writer of True Detective, Nic Pizzalatto.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48215588733086,"sku":"UBD-9781464213717","price":24.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781464213717.jpg?v=1788094020","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781464213717","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
