Karl Edward Wagner
247 books413 followersKarl Edward Wagner (12 December 1945 – 13 October 1994) was an American writer, editor and publisher of horror, science fiction, and heroic fantasy, who was born in Knoxville, Tennessee and originally trained as a psychiatrist. His disillusionment with the medical profession can be seen in the stories "The Fourth Seal" and "Into Whose Hands". He described his world view as nihilistic, anarchistic and absurdist, and claimed, not entirely seriously, to be related to "an opera composer named Richard". Wagner also admired the cinema of Sam Peckinpah, stating "I worship the film The Wild Bunch".

The Monkey • (1980) • novelette by Stephen King
-When it comes to 'haunted toy' tales, there's something less horrible about a cymbal-smashing wind-up monkey than a jaundiced porcelain Victorian devil doll, however King does King and keeps his little version of Richard Matheson's 'Prey' at maximum speed (with much less ankle stabbing) complete with all his baby-boomer psycho-mania and suburban grue.
The Gap • (1980) • short story by Ramsey Campbell
-More dank and damp eviscerations from master Campbell. Here, a young horror author spends the weekend with a more established supernatural writer, triggering one of Campbell's dizzying existential dilemmas, one where identity is dubious, exposing some line-blurring suckling & face-eating stigmata. There couldn't be a more obtuse tale of passing the torch in the horror world, and a dubious climax where 'the gap' may be the absence of a face; or a literary career violently removed and healed into a scar, or a gap depending how deep the cut was.
The Cats of Pere LaChaise • (1980) • short story by Neil Olonoff - Originally written for a Parisian travelogue, Olonoff turns in one of his few works of fiction, in this case, a feline gothic complete with ominous stone crypts, tight-lipped revenge, and flesh-eating vermin. Another surprise gem. All the gruesome finishings of a Grand Guignol play yet restrained in that 1970s way of showing shadow and insinuating sublime doom (no pants-down horrors here).
The Propert Bequest • (1980) • novelette by Basil A. Smith
-In line with the ghost stories of M.R. James, Onions, even Joseph Payne Brennan, Smith plays with academic vendettas, bizarre architecture, and a spotted shadow thing with spider's legs. While not the most original, this novelette succeeds in the gathering of multiple dreads, offering some funhouse dramatics alongside a strange and inhuman corpse somewhere in the walls.
On Call • (1980) • short story by Dennis Etchison
-Another Etchison stunner of dubious perspective. A man attempts to kill time before picking up his wife from the doctor's office. Yet he forgets what she went in for and when she's getting out. He also forgets her doctor's name, the office suite, the office floor. And in typical fashion, he forgets if his wife is actually his wife, and if so, asking himself: why is she taking so long to find him? Reading Etchison is tracing unreliable shadows in a thick fog. Obscured traumas, his specialty.
The Catacomb • (1980) • short story by Peter Shilston
-Another solid 'gothic' that finds itself in a refreshing tourist locale: Sicily! Here a lonely academic/antiquarian departs the ramshackle tour bus and finds himself exploring a Sicilian town cloaked in both silence and superstition. This tale has been told countless times, but Shilston is economical with his building of dread, and in the catacombs, the deeper you step into the dark, the more decay will stir and do its best to come alive and prevent any trespass.
Black Man with a Horn • [Cthulhu Mythos short fiction] • (1980) • novelette by T. E. D. Klein
-Not quite as powerful as Klein's 'Nadleman's Gods' and 'Petey', 'Black Man with a Horn' is a wonderful and imperfect 'conduit study' between the early NYC works of Lovecraft and Victor Lavelle's modern retake, 'Ballad of Black Tom.' An elder horror writer ruminates of his old pal, Lovecraft, as well as the missionary acquaintance he'd met on a flight to NYC. And here comes the haunted Malaya and the Tcho Tcho savages seeking their great, flute-faced god. Toss in Plagues of migrating snails! And one of the few tales ever to reference both John Coltrane and Nyarlathotep. Still a problematic tale, but that image of the horns from within is so grotesquely haunting.
The King • (1980) • short story by William Relling, Jr.
-Hero worship can reanimate the dead in ways least expected. Let your idols burn if you don't want them coming back. Solid but not special supernatural Elvis.
Footsteps • (1980) • short story by Harlan Ellison
-Ellison wrote this in a Parisian bookstore storefront, and while it's a unique exercise in spontaneous story writing & offhanded prompts, this werewolf succubus tale is purely adolescent male fantasy in crude reverse. Just trying to figure out if lycans and faeries can successfully seduce each other....
Without Rhyme or Reason • (1980) • short story by Peter Valentine Timlett
-A good tale that originally appeared in Campbell's Dark Terrors. There's nothing all that original about corpses in an English garden. However there's a refreshing twist in Timlett's garden, of course there has to be for it to close this classically discordant and haunting anthology. In the end, the flowers will bloom over someone else's dark delicacies.
Such a competent collection before the genre's horizon tipped the scale towards poorer tastes and less subtle doomscribes.

This was the second volume of the long-running Year's Best Horror that Wagner edited, and presented his picks for the best from 1980. The book has a very cool Michael Whelan cover that shows a werewolf clutching a victim and sitting in a Stonehenge-like circle. It features good stories by Harlan Ellison, Dennis Etchinson, and Ramsey Campbell. My two favorites are Stephen King's classic The Monkey and Black Man with a Horn by T.E.D. Klein.

This was another used paperback I got when I was at the World Science Fiction convention held a month ago. Karl Edward Wagner at first pursued a career in psychiatry, then left it to write fantasy and horror fiction. He also was the editor of this annual series of horror fiction.
This book has different kinds of horror fiction; some are naturalistic, some supernatural. The Stephen King story is about a toy monkey, which, when it clangs its cymbals, heralds the death of somebody nearby, say from an accident. The story has its moments, but I found it a bit too long, and I also wondered while reading it, "Why don't they just destroy the toy monkey?"
"Black Man with A Horn" by T.E.D. Kline works on various levels. The story is about a weird fish-like being who means the doom of anyone who encounters it. A Lovecraftian pastiche which also is a kind of reflection on Cthulu Mythos fiction.
By the way, I suggest anyone interested in weird fiction to read T.E.D. Kline "The Events at Poroth Farm." Ligotti called it a "masterpiece." I agree.
I'm not going to review every story here, so I'll just mentioned a few that made an impression. "The Catacomb" by Peter Shilston was chilling. As I was reading this story late at night, I became more attuned to the sounds around me, that's how effective the story was for me. In this story, a tour group has to take a pause, so one of the members of the tour group goes into an abandoned church. This church is creepy, it is dark, there are sounds, perhaps laughter, the paintings on the church walls are blasphemous, and there are dead bodies which apparently are moving toward this tourist.
"Footsteps" by Harlan Ellison was written 'on spec'--a store owner gave Ellison an idea for a story, which he was to spend the day writing it, on the spot, in the store. The story is about a she-werewolf which goes after men, and has an unexpected ending. "Without Rhyme or Reason" by Peter Valentine Timlett is naturalistic horror. The conflict in the story is between an attractive middle aged woman, and the new housekeeper she hired, an attractive young woman. The housekeeper misinterprets the words and actions of her employer, causing an horrible end.

A great collection, as always. I think my favorite part of reading these is seeing all the writers who I've never heard of, taken from obscure publications. I have this (obviously romantic) image of Karl Edward Wagner surrounded by stacks of collections, magazines, chapbooks, pamphlets, endlessly searching....

Wagner is a well-read and eclectic reader, so while his editorial purview here is wide-ranging, the results skew towards the middling. A few pastiche efforts (neither Smith or Shilston raising any interest with their Jamesian contributions, though Klein acquits himself well with a modern Lovecraftian novella, despite that it could have been improved by ending four paragraphs earlier).
Standard tales from King, Campbell, Ellison, Relling Jr, and Etchison, a duffer from Olonoff (from whom no more was ever heard), but the best entry comes finally from Timlett, who presents a standard tale which benefits from an atypical denouement.

Mi riferisco solo al racconto di Stephen King e non all'antologia; una meraviglia. Il perturbante qui anima un oggetto inanimato che diventa simbolo della paura della morte, dell'inevitabilità della vita e di quelli che può accadere. È un racconto che da di estate, soffitte polverose, rovi e more, e l'acqua che accompagna ogni evento luttuoso, acqua che mi ha riportata ai fantasmi giapponesi. L'ho letto per prepararmi all'imminente uscita del film di Oz Perkins ispirato al racconto: vedremo se sarà altrettanto bello.

Anthologies like this will be "currently-reading" for quite a while because I read a story here, a story there--and "oops, a year gone already???";-) In other words, in between reading other stuff. That's the nice thing about short story collections, IMO.
Anyway, MARCH 30, 2008, I read T.E.D. Klein's "Black Man With a Horn":
I didn't purchase this book because I wanted to read Lovecraftian inspired stuff--in fact, it was more so I could get a wider grasp of the genre's development--but if I should nominate a short story involving HPL superbly without in any way mimicking either him or the "Cthulhu Mythos" this is it! Wow!
The protagonist is an unnamed 77-year old pulp author who knew HPL when he was young; and is now living in the shadow of his long-dead friend (on a blurb the protagonist is reduced to "a disciple"), who encounters a strange mystery involving--maybe--dark, old, Asian rituals & tribes; all starting with a chance meeting on a plane.
I won't go into details, but the pun to the HPL phenomena (incl. a few excerpts from letters) combined with a well-written tale of silently growing direness works surprisingly well. And the, hm, un-ending of the ending is wonderful.
As of MARCH 31 I am reading William Relling's "The King" featuring--totally unexpected (I am a fan, actually)--Elvis impersonators. 'Tis something different indeed, so far... Later: Okay yarn. Not the worse, not the best. My main complaint, though, is that I don't find the "Elvis concert playlist" believable; not if you know how 1970s Elvis arranged them--and since I got the impression that the impersonator in question is basing his show around that area's Elvis (and not, say, they young one from the 1950s) that spoiled it for me. Sigh.
Late April:
"On Call" by Dennis Etchison: A very nice, little tale of growing horror through the optics of estrangement and paranoia caused by weird changes in the protagonist's life--really happening everywhere around him. And one wonders if not he's the real problem:-)
The advancing paranoia aspect with genuine horrific end notes, however, reaches a close-to-unparalleled sublimity in Ramsey Campbell's "The Gap". I rarely shudder, but the build-up of this story evolving around a writer's experiences following a visit from collegues and a weird friend of theirs really gave me the creeps--especially at the end. Perfect build-up by a master writer. Phew. Marvelously horrible!
More to come...

I read my first Year's Best Horror when I bought it on a middle school field trip in 1991, and it had a huge impact on me. I finally was able to get a hold of a few of these older ones recently, edited by the late great Karl Edward Wagner, and just loved it. This one came out in 1980 and looking back it is crazy to think of all the greats that were working back then at the same time. Stephen King, Harlan Ellison, Dennis Etchison, Ramsey Campbell, T.E.D. Klein. Awesome collection.
May 27, 2023
Kind of surprised that it's the big names that disappoint here: Stephen King, Ramsey Campbell, and Harlan Ellison all turn in duds. T.E.D. Klein's "Black Man with a Horn" is why I snatched this up, and I'm glad I did because that's a good bit of Mythos mischief. Other winners include "The Cats of Pere Lachaise" by Neil Olonoff, the chilling and way-too-relevant "On Call" by Dennis Etchison, "The Catacomb" by Peter Shilston, "The King" by William Relling, Jr., and the cleverly titled "Without Rhyme or Reason" by Peter Valentine Timlett. Worth the read.

Piccoli racconti horror, ma a parte l’infallibile Stephen King, pochi altri hanno scritto qualcosa di memorabile.

Il re non sbaglia mai. Bellissimo racconto
July 4, 2009
This was my first "year's Best horror" collection and I still remember it with fondness. Very fine stories, including "The Monkey" by King, "On Call" by Dennis Etchison, and "Black Man with a Horn" by T.E.D. Klein. Good stuff.

Dei tesori in soffitta che è meglio prendano polvere
Eccetto il racconto di King – che avevo già letto in un’altra antologia – una silloge modesta per gli appassionati del genere.
A me, tuttavia, ha strappato più sbadigli che non brividi.
