Publisher's Summary

This may be The Second Wish, but it's the third witch's dozen of nerve-rending stories of the macabre from the man who gave you the internationally best-selling Necroscope and Vampire World series.

Brian Lumley's The Second Wish and Other Exhalations maintains the nightmarish tradition established by his Fruiting Bodies and Other Fungi and Dagon's Bell and Other Discords to complete a trilogy of terror.

From Lovecraftian tales such as "The House of the Temple", "Rising With Surtsey", and the title story, to such contemporary horrors as "The Sun, the Sea, and the Silent Scream" and "The Luststone", this new collection has been culled from the writings of a true master of nightmares.

Remember: in the field of no-holds-barred terror fiction, there's Brian Lumley–and then there's the rest....
