He Is Legend:
An Anthology Celebrating Richard Matheson

Richard Matheson


Only 400 First Edition Hardcovers Available!
(according to the publisher)

 

Just say the name and the memories come flooding back -- Somewhere in Time, Duel, The Shrinking Man, I Am Legend, and countless more. Hes one of the greatest storytellers of our time -- or any time.

He Is Legend: An Anthology Celebrating Richard Matheson, a spectacular anthology of original, never-before published stories by todays best writers -- stories set in Richard Mathesons own fictional universes, and published with Mr. Mathesons complete cooperation! 

And, among the many contributions to the book, is the first collaboration ever between Stephen King and his son Joe Hill, the novella "Throttle" -- their take on Mathesons classic "Duel." This is, obviously, a once-in-a-lifetime publishing event, as its father and sons first collaboration.  

Other contributors to this anthology, edited by Christopher Conlon, include F. Paul Wilson, Joe Lansdale, Whitley Strieber, Richard Christian Matheson, William F. Nolan, Gary Braunbeck, Thomas Monteleone, John Shirley and an introduction by Ramsey Campbell (additional contributors will be announced at a later date). 

And, as an added bonus, He Is Legend features the original full-length screenplay "Conjure Wife" -- over 20,000 never-before published words by Richard Matheson himself, in collaboration with the late Charles Beaumont that was filmed as "Burn, Witch Burn." 

Cover art and six interior illustrations by Mathesons favorite artist Harry O. Morris.
