In the tradition of the old Ace Doubles (flip the volume over to read the second title), here’s the thirty-first Wildside Double: THE MONASTERY: A NOVEL OF HORROR, by James Arthur Anderson. Fourteen-year-old Jake Harrison’s summer vacation turns into a nightmare when his friend suddenly disappears in a field on the site of an old monastery grounds. It’s up to Jake and his friends to discover the secret of the cursed abbey and locate their missing comrade--but their quest to solve the mystery leads them into horrors they never could have imagined. Will they be able to destroy the evil force within the monastery before it’s too late? And if so, at what cost? Another great horror tale by the author of The Altar and Those Who Favor Fire and Other Horror Stories. THOSE WHO FAVOR FIRE AND OTHER HORROR STORIES, by James Arthur Anderson. These stories of the weird and supernatural lead us on a guided tour through the dark places in H.P. Lovecraft’s Rhode Island, ranging from the streets of Providence to an old textile mill. An artist attempts to exorcise his demons by painting Providence’s famous 'Waterfires'; a stranger wanders College Hill in search of beauty; an old man takes a midnight ride through the East Side on his favorite horse; a book collector finds a copy of an ancient volume that belonged to Lovecraft himself; and a fisherman learns that sometimes it’s just better to let that award-winning trophy get away. A dozen tales to thrill and chill by the author of The Altar and The Monastery! 3
