Our intention was to present the familiar and the experimental, the traditional and the avant-garde, the quiet and the vividly shocking, in a field whose boundaries are no longer rigidly defined and where literary values coexist with the leading edge of popular culture. There is no need for a narrow, constricted theme to inhibit the imagination, for dark fantasy is truly an international fiction without limits." --from the IntroductionDann, Jack is the author of 'Gathering the Bones Original Stories from the World's Masters of Horror', published 2007 under ISBN 9780765301789 and ISBN 0765301784.
