{"product_id":"michael-shea-polyphemus-9781960241092","title":"Polyphemus","description":"In the title story \"Polyphemus,\" an exploration team on a desert planet faces death when it encounters a terrifying alien monstrosity. In \"The Angel of Death,\" a serial killer who has a city on edge may finally have met his match in the form of a powerful interplanetary traveler. In the blackly humorous \"Uncle Tuggs,\" a series of grisly and bizarre deaths may be connected to the mysterious disappearance of old Uncle Tuggs. \"The Horror on the #33\" tells of a man's struggle with a deadly and horrible monster on a city bus. And in the highlight of the collection, \"The Autopsy,\" which Algis Budrys called \"one of the most successful meldings of science fiction with horror that I have ever encountered\" and which was filmed for Guillermo del Toro's Netflix series Cabinet of Curiosities, an aging pathologist is called in to perform an autopsy-but what he discovers during his examination is chilling and unthinkable ... Michael Shea (1946-2014) was one of the finest American authors of speculative fiction of modern times, and Polyphemus (1987), originally published as a limited edition hardcover by Arkham House, features the best of his short fiction, in which he deftly blends the genres of horror, fantasy, and science fiction. A landmark collection of modern speculative fiction returns to print at long last in this edition, which features a new introduction by Laird Barron.","brand":"Valancourt Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53803703894358,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/michael-shea-polyphemus-9781960241092","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
