Queer Fear II

Queer Fear II builds on the successes of its predecessor, Queer Fear, the groundbreaking gay-themed horror anthology Gothic.net called "the best horror anthology of the year" which won a Queer Horror Award, and was a finalist for a Spectrum Award and two Lambda Literary Awards. The dark pleasures and anxieties of the Queer Fear books have their roots in the nightmarish, viral machinations of AIDS and homophobia, as well as the ghoulish, old-fashioned thrills of confronting things that go bump in the night. Queer Fear II will keep you up long past the witching hour.

MICHAEL ROWE is the three-time Lambda Literary Award-nominated author of Writing Below the Belt and Looking for Brothers, the co-editor of Sons of Darkness and Brothers of the Night, and the editor of Queer Fear. He is also the guest literary judge of Best Gay Erotica 2003

This second volume includes among its stories new work by some stars of the previous volume — International Horror Guild Award winners Gemma Files and Michael Marano, Bram Stoker Award winners David Nickle and Edo van Belkom, and screenwriter Ron Oliver. Science fiction writer Robert J. Sawyer, winner of the Aurora and Nebula Awards, crosses genres to appear alongside newer writers like Bram Stoker Award winner Brett Savory, novelist Sephera Giron, and classic British ghost story author Steve Duffy.

And if that’s not enough, Queer Fear II will also feature a new, unpublished story by internationally acclaimed horror writer Poppy Z. Brite.
