In the instant I saw the cover and Douglas Clegg's website I was overcome by book lust, but I didn't realise that the book was a novella until it arrived in the mail.

    <body><![CDATA[Douglas Clegg's <em>Isis</em> is a supremely creepy novella, with a fascinating Gothic aftertaste. According to my research, this novella is meant to provide a back story for a series of novels by Douglas Clegg. I will definitely be putting his other works on my lengthy tbr list! <em>Isis</em> is deliciously eerie an...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77902001">more...</a>]]></body>
