I agree entirely with your assessment. He's a favorite of mine. Unfortunately, I think I've read every novel he's published, even the few published after his death. |

There's been a selection of Richard Laymon's books for just 99p at Amazon UK for a while now.
I've only just realised that they're from Headline, the same publisher that's had 10-15 of Dean Koontz's older novels at the same price for over a year. Last edited by Kieran Seymour; 09-14-2017 at 10:43 AM. |

I've read only a few novels by Graham Masterton. I liked what I read, but I have yet to fully explore his work. Shaun Hutson (Mister Gore ) - I haven't read anything by him, but I know of his reputation. I did, once upon a time, read something by Guy N Smith, but I can't remember what it was. |

To Wake the Dead In the Dark Blood Games Into the Fire Dark Mountain Cuts In the Dark was my first Richard Laymon book and it's probably still my favorite. For me, his books teeter between stupid and stupidly entertaining. I remember disliking Come Out Tonight and One Rainy Night. Last edited by ZodWallop; 09-14-2017 at 11:53 AM. |

I guess it doesn't help you if it is not available. But hey, there may be a Laymon book out there you haven't read yet. I think there's a few others out there that haven't been released in the US yet. |

At one time, I collected Laymon in the Headline hardcover editions. (I no longer own these.) I do, however, have one copy of the First American paperback edition of "The Cellar," and one copy of the First American paperback edition of "The Woods are Dark." Both are in VG-F condition. (One of them has 'proof copy' on the cover, but I can't remember which one. My book collection is in a climate-controlled storage at this time.) I'll have to check on the plot of "Alarms," to determine if I've read it or not. My two favorite Laymon titles are "FunLand" and "Resurrection Dreams." |

Letters to the Damned by Austin Crawley is up for 99 cents. It's particularly good if you like creepy supernatural. About a black post box in a small English village where people write requests for favors to their dead relatives and get responses.

Yeah, I intend to read more of his World's Scariest Places series. But I heard they follow a certain formula, so I'm taking a long pause between books.

The first three books of Sergei Lukyanenko's horror/dark fantasy Night Watch series are $0.99 a piece. The finale is still ten bucks though.
