A collection of stories by

 
 
Publisher's Weekly
In their eerie novella Exorcising Angels, set during the London blitz of 1940, Simon Clark and Tim Lebbon pay homage to Arthur Machen's "The Bowmen" (1915), which caused a stir because many British readers took this tale of angelic English archers mowing down advancing German troops with invisible arrows in the early days of WWI to be true. The abrupt appearance in a London church of a German airman's homicidal reanimated corpse strikes the only false note. In addition, each author contributes an original story: Clark's visionary "Bridge to Nowhere" does a better job than Lebbon's sexually explicit "Skins" in capturing Machen's weird essence.
