Martin H. Greenberg and Charles G. Waugh [eds.] - 13 Short Horror Novels (Bonanza Books, 1987) Introduction by Charles G. Waugh Stephen King - Jerusalem's Lot Arthur Conan Doyle - The Parasite Manly Wade Wellman - Fearful Rock Ray Russell - Sardonicus George R. R. Martin - Nightflyers Fritz Leiber - Horrible Imaginings Cornell Woolrich - Jane Brown's Body Theodore Sturgeon - Killdozer H. P. Lovecraft - The Shadow Out of Time Robert Aickman - The Stains Frank Belknap Long - The Horror from the Hills T. E. D. Klein - Children of the Kingdom Ray Bradbury - Frost and Fire Part of the "Baker's Dozen" series, this doorstopper (clocking in at 758 pages) preceded Mike Ashley’s Mammoth by one year. Though both open with a Stephen King and include a Ted Klein, the only overlap is Doyle's effort. Seems to be a bit sci-fi horror-oriented (the Woolrich is a mad scientist, reanimator type story).

"Frost and Fire" is really pushing the definition of both 'novel' and 'horror'. It's one of my very favorite Bradbury stories, but I can't see the justification for putting it in a clutch of horror stories. Unless, of course, it was just to put Ray's name on the cover. . .
