From the first, I set myself against "literature"; the story was the thing, and no amount of style could persuade me to select a story that lacked genuine, unadulterated horror. For those who wanted something high-brow there was plenty.

Howard story when i read Hester Holland's story. I'd say The Cyclops Juju was my favourite in this one.
	It was something unknown. I didn't know what it was. And then it didn't matter - it had killed me.
