Offers a collection of author's masterful Gothic horror stories, including the famously terrifying novella trio of 'Sardonicus', 'Sanguinarius', and 'Sagittarius'.
Ray Russell byl mistrem hororu, jehož krátké povídky, romány a scénáře často zkoumaly temnější zákoutí lidské psychiky. Jeho mistrovské dílo, povídka „Sardonicus“, je považováno za vrchol moderního gotického vyprávění, s atmosférou tak hmatatelnou, že se dočkala i filmové adaptace. Russell exceloval ve vytváření napětí a hrůzy, které čtenáře nenechají chladnými. Jeho tvorba si zaslouženě získala uznání pro svou originalitu a pronikavost.

Teenager Susan Garth was "a clean-talking sweet little girl" of high school age before she started having "fits"--A sudden aversion to churches and a newfound fondness for vulgarity. Then one night, she strips in front of the parish priest and sinks her nails into his throat. If not madness, then the answer must be demonic possession. To vanquish the Devil, Bishop Crimmings recruits Father Gregory Sargent, a younger priest with a taste for modern ideas and brandy. As the two men fight not just the darkness tormenting Susan but also one another, a soul-chilling revelation lurks in the shadows-one that knows that the darkest evil goes by many names
Russell James Ray is credited with the first canyoneering descents of the Barrancas Sinforosa and Batopilas. It was an endeavor that spanned several years, and included a self-delusional non-first descent of the Barranca Del Cobre. He currently resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he dreams of other things.
