Glory and Splendour · · Tales of the Weird

Glory and Splendour is the stunning debut from Alex Miles, an outstanding new voice in weird fiction. Introduction by Michel Parry, who says this is a significant first book. Muscular prose and a twisted imagination combine to make these tales special and disturbing. I was particularly impressed with 'The Judge', which has a powerful and nightmarish inevitability about it, but also the stories are very good indeed. Alex Miles is a bold new talent, exactly the sort of injection of fresh blood that the weird fiction scene needs! - Rhys Hughes Glory and Splendour is a remarkable debut from a young writer. Clearly tapping from the same vein as Thomas Ligotti, Alex is already a writer with an emerging voice all his own. Miles has produced a collection of great verve, originality and integrity. - Simon Bestwick Glory and Splendour is an apt title for this collection as it is both glorious and splendid. I urge you to purchase this book, it was a pure joy to read, relish and savour. - Ginger Nuts of Horror
