One of the great pulp freelance writers, Fredric Brown (1906-1972) mixed a flair for the horrific, a quirky sense of humor, and a crazy imagination, and publicized many classic novels in the puzzle and science fiction styles. But he was also a professional of the "short-short story", stories only a full page or two in length, but hard-hitting and with a wicked twist by the end. Nightmares and Geezenstacks (1961) gathers 47 short gems by Brown, ranging from science fiction to noir criminal offense to horror, like the chilling and unforgettable "The Geezenstacks". Long unobtainable, Brown's common collection is available for the first time in almost 40 years and is sure to please both longtime admirers and those who are discovering this brilliant copy writer for the first time. "Might have been compiled by O. Henry in a dark spirits; alternately comic, horrifying [and] brilliant." (Technology Fiction & Fantasy Booklet Review) "My favorite author of all time." (Mickey Spillane) "A unique and unique words...one of the genre's most incisive satirists and exceptional innovators." (Catalogue Journal) "One of the best pulp freelance writers." (Booklist)
