5.0 out of 5 stars Aargh! Horror or Humour?, Sep 22 2011
By RIJU GANGULY "perceptive reader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Flowers from the Moon (Hardcover)
These stories had been written by Robert Bloch at the time when he was at his pulpy best. Now, if you are of a snooty kind who thinks that the world would have been a better place if the hackwork stories published in pulps had not seen the light of the day, then stop reading here, and kindly visit some other page. But if you ARE a lover of tightly told action-packed stories with liberal dosage of humour & horror (often seamlessly mixed), then this is the volume for you. The contents are: -

(*) Introduction by Robert M. Price

1) The Druidic Doom
2) Fangs of Vengeance
3) Death is an Elephant
4) A Question of Identity
5) Death Has Five Guesses
6) The Bottomless Pool
7) The Dark Isle
8) Flowers from the Moon
9) He Waits Beneath the Sea
10) Power of the Druid
11) Be Yourself
12) A Sorcerer Runs for Sheriff
13) Black Bargain
14) A Bottle of Gin
15) Wine of the Sabbat
16) Soul Propietor
17) Satan's Phonograph
18) The Man Who Told the Truth
19) The Night They Crashed the Party
20) Philtre Tip

I don't know if you can get hold of this collection, since it has gone out of print. But if you can, and believe me, you would really love to read these stories, then go all-out to have the book. Otherwise, it would be..... lunacy, what else?!

5.0 out of 5 stars A nice compilation of some of Bloch's earlier short stories, Jan 13 2000
By James L. Roberts "Jim Roberts" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Flowers from the Moon (Hardcover)
An excellent title by a man whose work still delivers the goods. Many of these stories are from Bloch's pulp days and provide a nice body of work to supplement the other titles you might have read including *Psycho*. If you've never owned an Arkham House title, this is an excellent one to snag. It's well-crafted and has a very intriguing dust jacket.

Bloch is a craftsman of the highest order; it's amazing to see how stories written when he was barely out of his teens still compare favorably to ones written late in his career. He was a massive talent.
