A classic tale of supernatural horror from the acclaimed author of Koko, The Talisman and Mr X. Now reissued in a new cover style. 'Floating Dragon racks you with suspense! Straub is a master at having whole communities rocked by the forces of wickedness.' Observer The terrors afflicting the sleepy town of Hampstead, Connecticut, were beyond imagination. Sparrows dropping dead from the trees like rotten fruit, disfiguring diseases spreading like wildfire, inexplicable murders and child drownings shattering the lives of the citizens -- never can such a list of horrors have afflicted one town. But the evil madness had a long history. A catastrophe had struck Hampstead every thirty years since its foundation 300 years before -- yet only Graham Williams, a writer and descendant of one of the original founders, had looked into the 'black summers' and their mysterious origins. When he discovers that descendants of the three other original settlers are back living in the town, he knows it will be the blackest summer yet!

Seller's Description:
Dillon, Leo and Diane. Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book. Signed by Author(s) 1 of 500 copies, SIGNED by the author and the artists on a special signature page. The book is square, solid, and unread with a VERY faint smudge like a dusty fingerprint right by the spine on the tops of the pages and on the bottoms is an old, quite faint stain that one might think was from exposure to water based on the color, but it's NOT a moisture stain as the pages are in perfect shape. The slight discoloration does not extend into the text block, it only exists on the exterior surface. The boards are solid and unblemished, and the dust jacket is quite sharp with just a little bit of wear at the righthand points; it's in a protective Brodart cover. No price clippings, no remainder marks. You'll feel as though you've been wandering over the hills and far away, beyond the fields we know, through faery lands forlorn, once you've received this book!
