Every sale should have a goal. This time, the goal is to free up enough space in the office that I can give that (bigger) bedroom to my two boys, Aidan and Eamonn. So, don't just look at it as simply buying books, you're making two little boys very happy.

Description:

"Late one night, on a lonely south Georgia highway, a very strange car picks up an even stranger hitchhiker and the fates of all concerned become inextricably intertwined. Meet Dancy Flammarion, an orphaned albino girl who talks to angels and is intent on ridding the world of monsters. But what happens when one of the monsters decides to use her for his own dark ends?

In the Garden of Poisonous Flowers is award-winning fantasist Caitlín R. Kiernan's first-ever novella, giving us a glimpse into the life of Dancy Flammarion shortly before her appearance in Kiernan's critically-acclaimed second novel, Threshold. This gritty yet decadent story of ghouls, corruption, and talking bears, draws us deeply into a world of madness and betrayal, forbidden appetites and deadly intrigue, and the light that shines from the most unlikely of heroes." --publisher

Includes color dustjacket and ten black and white interior illustrations by Dame Darcy.

Cover for extra chapbookOn the Road to Jefferson is an unsigned and previously unprinted chapbook specially printed to accompany this edition of In the Garden of Poisonous Flowers.
