"Eaten by ghouls" is good.

Today's valuable lesson: Doesn't matter how true it is, doesn't matter how sad you and your protagonist are that the character's dead. As an epitaph, eaten by ghouls is a guaranteed mood-breaker.



[livejournal.com profile] matociquala's talking about point of view. [livejournal.com profile] misia has become a book pusher. And they're both so much more interesting than I am right at the moment it would make your head spin.

There's a Dover reprint (from the old Dover Publications) with "The Stoneware Monkey" and some other shorter works.

Well, stone the crows.

I have The Stoneware Monkey--I'd forgotten about it entirely until you mentioned it. However, though it's Dover (published in 1987), it's only TSM, not a collection.

I'll have to give it a go after I finish with Inspector French's Greatest Case
