Kyle Murchison Booth is the unlikeliest of characters to gain a
cult following, yet he has. Eccentric, socially awkward Booth is an
introverted museum archivist, descended from a most unusual family,
who frequently finds himself in the midst of the most unsettling
supernatural experiences and strange necromantic mysteries. A
gentleman and a scholar, the unwilling hero persevered through The
Bone Key, a series of interconnected short stories, to win
readers'' hearts (and possibly their souls). This new edition, with
a "puzzle" cover and a new introduction by one of Booth''s
"successors" at the Samuel Mather Parrington Museum, will delight
current fans and allow even more to discover its dark charms.
This is the first non-themed collection of critically acclaimed
author Sarah Monette's best short fiction. To paraphrase Hugo-award
winner Elizabeth Bear's introduction: "Monette's prose is lapidary,
her ideas are fantastical and chilling. She has studied the craft
of fantastic fiction from the pens of masters and mistresses of the
genre. She is a poet of the awkward and the uncertain, exalter of
the outcast, the outre, and the downright weird. There is nothing
else quite like Sarah Monette's fiction".
