No Doors No Windows

Harlan Ellison's suspense anthology: 15 stories and one wild, 32-page introduction. Some tales, such as "Toe the Line" and "Ormond Always Pays His Bills," are simple pulp crime yarns; others are masterful examples of psychological terror and, in the case of "Whipped Dogs," mystical fantasy. Excellent. Originally published in 1975.
