So let’s move to an interesting option next. T.E.D. Klein. He’s very interesting. Klein is a horror aficionado, with a post-grad degree in English Lit from Brown University, doing his thesis on Lovecraft, changing his name ot add “Eibon” to it so his initials would spell TED, his nickname (Eibon is from the Clark Ashton Smith story that we read earlier), he’s done non-fiction, written critiques, and edited scripts.
He’s written a bit here and there. Two novels. Some collections of stories. And yet, when he does write, he’s a dense, meticulous writer, much like an Ambrose Bierce.
Anyways, he’s written some horror stuff in the Mythos. We’ll be reading “Black Man with a Horn” from the 1980 New Tales…. That I’ve been reading. It’s also published later as well, in one of his own collections.
