An impressive hommage to the ghost stories of M.R. James, chillingly illustrated by David Roberts. Younger readers should take the warning on the back cover seriously as this isn't a book to be read alone in an old, dark house on a stormy night. Or perhaps it is, but don't forget to look under the...
