THE COMPLEAT WEREWOLF

Ten otherworldly ?diabolical delights? from the author of Rocket to the Morgue and ?The Quest for Saint Aquin? (Kirkus Reviews).   Anthony Boucher was a literary renaissance man: an Edgar Award?winning mystery reviewer, an esteemed editor of the Hugo Award?winning Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, a prolific scriptwriter of radio mystery programs, and an accomplished writer of mystery, science fiction, fantasy, and horror. With a particular fondness for the locked room mystery, Boucher created such iconic sleuths as Los Angeles PI Fergus O?Breen, amateur sleuth Sister Ursula, and alcoholic ex-cop Nick Noble.   ?A fine volume of inventive entertainment? (The Times, London), this collection features ten of Boucher?s greatest stories of science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and horror.   A down on his luck college professor chats with a magician over cocktails, and a hairy situation ensues in ?The Compleat Werewolf.? Private detective Fergus O?Breen visits Mexico to investigate a peculiar case of a man with a skeleton in ?The Pink Caterpillar.? Meet androids and aliens in ?Q.U.R.? and ?Robinc.? A terrifying?but tiny?demon is summoned in ?Snulbug.? And a man discovers true terror lingering in the corner of his eye in the California desert in ?They Bite.?
