Never heard of him but the books look sweet! How does Barker stack up against King in terms of crime stories?

For me, RBP was one of the best crime authors ever, classic detective stories all located in the Bosten - Mass - Maine are.
Don´t wanna say something bad about SK, his crime stories are nice,
but when you like Dashiel Hammett, R.Chandler give RBP a chance.:rock:

Awesome adds, Frank! Can’t believe I missed this. I blame the Tapatalk app :) Those remarques in 172,3 are impressive. I admit I haven’t heard of Vincent Voss but if you like him then he’s worth a read. What’s your favorite book by him?

[MikeDuke]

Some great stuff in here Frank. Wish my collecting was a little more diverse after seeing this and other non king books. But that may change.
You do have some really cool books and nice looking remarques.

Is there a better place for a late night bookreading event then a chappel at the biggest forest cemetery (391 hectares) in the world ?
The book Handicap mit Todesfolge from Prof. Dr. Hanns-Stephan Haas is about the operations in a psychiatric institution during World War II.

Tks a lot, i also like her drawing style a lot.

I learned Low German from my grandfather, in northern Germany it is taught again in schools.
In my hometown Hamburg, especially in the port area, a lot of Low German is still spoken.

I know Björn Ian Craig for more than 10 years from the German Horror Forum. We often talk about our collections, which books we are looking for and which we have just bought. For some reason, I've always forgot to ask him for a remarque, he's a great artist.

Unfortunately not, luckily I can still squeeze in 6+ drawings.

Each artist created for this little fighter flip book a character.
It's riso-printed and filled with funny and angry/dangerous characters
from many great artists.

The Hamburg Comic Festival is one of my highlights every year.
For almost a week, several dozen events: readings, signings, exhibitions, sales rooms with many publishers , etc.
Among other things, the start of a new horror graphic novel series - DIE UNHEIMLICHEN
was very interesting for me that year.
German comic artists reinterpret classic and modern horror stories from ...
John Kendrick Bangs, Theodor Fontane, A.E.Poe, Literatur Nobel Prize winner Elfriede Jelinek and others...

[Stockerlone]

Then I'll show Poe next. The great thing about the
DIE UNHEIMLICHEN series are the completely different drawing styles of the artists. Lukas Jüliger puts Poes classic horror story in an incredible, mostly green otaku / anime world.

Yes, the short story is about a largely unknown reindeer of Santa Claus, Rudwolf
half reindeer - half wolf ....malicious, alcoholic, violent.
The reader also learns that the Santa Claus clothes were originally completely white.
Until the first Christmas Daym Santa Claus had the stupid idea to put Rudwolf in front of the sled. Result .... a bloody almost dead Santa Claus.
That's why his clothes are white + bled-red since then.:panic:

Finally a signed limited German book by Clive Barker, the cover by Serra is also great.

Online Marburg Con took place last week, Germany's most important con for fantastic.
In addition to bookreadings, the Vincent Prize was awarded there, Germany's most important prize for fantastic and horror. In the Best Novel National category, my buddy Vincent Voss won with his novel Infiltriert / Infiltrated.
