    Default Shining in the Dark -- featuring The Blue Air Compressor

    Shining in the Dark: Celebrating Twenty Years of Lilja's Library!

    Featuring Stephen King, Clive Barker, Stewart O'Nan, John Ajvide Lindqvist, Jack Ketchum, Ramsey Campbell, Brian Keene, and many others!

    Hans-Ake Lilja, founder of Lilja's Library, has compiled a brand new anthology of horror stories to help celebrate twenty years of running the #1 Stephen King news website on the web!

    This anthology includes both original stories like the brand new novella by John Ajvide Lindqvist (Let the Right One In), very rare reprints like "The Blue Air Compressor" (a LONG LOST Stephen King story that has never appeared in any of his collections and hasn't seen print anywhere since 1981), and at least one classic tale that inspired Lilja's love of the macabre at a very young age!

    An exclusive Cemetery Dance Publications release, there are no other editions planned anywhere in the world for this incredible anthology!

    Congrats to Lilja....but perhaps it is bad-form to refer to his website as "the #1 Stephen King news website on the web!" on this website.

    Thanks tippy4 for sticking up for our site..
    I consider our site to be THE Resource For Stephen King Information; and THE site for Stephen King discussion. Lilja is a cool guy and does a great job-perhaps the best outside the U.S.
    Lilja's certainly is to be congratulated for getting permission to reprint "The Blue Air Compressor".

    Yea, I mean this is "news" and it's not in the "news" section on the site. So Hans-Ake wins that title for sure.
    Congrats dude, I will definitely purchase this!

    It's not posted at The Oracle because there were already two threads posted in two different sections, and I didn't want to make a third.

    Also, just as an aside, "The Blue Air Compressor" is not a lost story. Just because it has not been reprinted and is uncollected, doesn't make it lost. "After the Play" was lost, but has been found.

    I just realized I posted it in the wrong place up top (Path of the Beam instead of Oracle), so if someone with mad skills wants to move it, please do.

    I was a little confused about the announcement, since I was sure I ordered this book months ago. And I was right. Did CD announce it privately months ago?
