"Vasarien" changed everything. I went from being so-so on Legotti to a ravenous fan. This single story is so brilliant, so well constructed, and so enchanting that it beggars belief. I've not read such a thrilling macabre tale in decades. Thank you S.T. Joshi for introducing me to Legotti.

Legotti's prose continue to impress, though I'm beginning to recognize a pattern with his endings: they are maddeningly vague, in most cases. So far, the best short, by far, has been "The Chemyst." The most impressive, from a technical standpoint, was "Notes on the Writing of Horror: A Story." Alas, the ending fell flat. Still, I'm happy to have been exposed to Legotti and enjoying my reading.

The Frolic, Les Fleurs, Alice's Last Adventure, Dream of a Manikin, and The Chemyst. Excellent prose. Atmosphere, and character to spare. A macabre delight.
