Drace (dracenines) | 7733 comments A couple of problems with the same book to take care of.

First, two editions of Swift to Chase by Laird Barron are missing a contributor. Paul Tremblay needs to be added to both the hardcover edition (Swift to Chase, ISBN 9781945373060) and the Kindle edition (Swift to Chase, ASIN B01K4ZI1K6) with the Introduction role.

Second, the hardcover edition's description is missing paragraph breaks and is formatted incorrectly. It should read as follows:

Laird Barron's fourth collection gathers a dozen stories set against the backdrops of the Alaskan wilderness, far-future dystopias, and giallo-fueled nightmare vistas.

All hell breaks loose in a massive apartment complex when a modern day Jack the Ripper strikes under cover of a blizzard; a woman, famous for surviving a massacre, hits the road to flee the limelight and finds her misadventures have only begun; while tracking a missing B-movie actor, a team of man hunters crashes in the Yukon Delta and soon realize the Arctic is another name for hell; an atomic-powered cyborg war dog loyally assists his master in the overthrow of a far-future dystopian empire; following an occult initiation ritual, a man is stalked by a psychopathic sorority girl and her team of horrifically disfigured henchmen; a rich lunatic invites several high school classmates to his mansion for a night of sex, drugs, and CIA-funded black ops experiments; and other glimpses into occulted realities a razor's slice beyond our own.

Combining hardboiled noir, psychological horror, and the occult, Swift to Chase continues three-time Shirley Jackson Award winner Barron's harrowing inquiry into the darkness of the human heart.
