Glory and Splendour:: Tales of the Weird
by Alex Miles
Glory and Splendour is the stunning debut from Alex Miles, an outstanding new voice in weird fiction. Introduction by Michel Parry, who says this is a significant first book. Muscular prose and a twisted imagination combine to make these tales special and disturbing. I was particularly impressed with 'The Judge', which has a powerful and nightmarish inevitability about it, but also the stories are very good indeed. Alex Miles is a bold new talent, exactly the sort of injection of fresh blood that the weird fiction scene needs! - Rhys Hughes Glory and Splendour is a remarkable debut from a young writer. Clearly tapping from the same vein as Thomas Ligotti, Alex is already a writer with an emerging voice all his own. Miles has produced a collection of great verve, originality and integrity. - Simon Bestwick Glory and Splendour is an apt title for this collection as it is both glorious and splendid. I urge you to purchase this book, it was a pure joy to read, relish and savour. - Ginger Nuts of Horror
