I have been enjoying the work of Welsh fantasist Rhys Hughes for quite a few years now, and it’s an honor to be publishing not one, but three MEGAPACK® collections of his indescribably excellent, of which this is the first. There is fantasy, of course. But there is also absurdist comedy. And horrors. And monsters. And all manner of things that only he could come up with. Truly, there is no one writing at the moment who is anything like him. Looking backwards, he’s a bit like R.A. Lafferty (but not), and a bit like Neal Gaiman (but not), and a bit like Paul Di Filippo (but not). Or perhaps they are a bit like him? (Or not?) After all, it’s a bit field with lots of overlap.

Whatever these 24 tales are (or are not), prepare yourself for a strange and magical journey. You will have fun!

Included are:

BARBARIAN GRAN VAMPIRIC GRAMPS DEPRESSURISED GHOST STORY THE POCKET SHOPS ARMS AGAINST A SEA THE AGELESS AGELASTS THE PRIVATE PIRATES CLUB SWALLOWING THE AMAZON PYRAMID AND THISBE THE FOREST CHAPEL BELL JELLYDÄMMERUNG!
