Description
 
"A brilliant father-son story by father-son King-Hill, (Throttle) is a must read." -- DarkTower.com

A Spectacular Anthology of Original, Never-Before
Published Stories by Today's Best Writers

One of only 52 limited lettered edition copies signed by all contributors, including Richard Matheson. He Is Legend: An Anthology Celebrating Richard Matheson is stories set in Richard Matheson's own fictional universes, and published with Mr. Matheson's complete cooperation! Includes bonus cover art.
A high demand and desirable limited First edition, lettered "PP".

Personally signed by Stephen King, his son Joe Hill, and Richard Matheson.

Cover art and six interior illustrations by Matheson's favorite artist Harry O. Morris. The volume is presented in a special beveled bonded leather clam case with the cover art inset.

Condition: As New.

Among the many contributions to the book, is the first collaboration ever between Stephen King and his son Joe Hill, the novella "Throttle" -- their take on Matheson's classic "Duel." This is, obviously, a once-in-a-lifetime publishing event, as it's father and son's first collaboration. Both Stephen King and Joe Hill have signed both the numbered and lettered editions.



Other contributors to this anthology include F. Paul Wilson, Joe Lansdale, Whitley Strieber, Richard Christian Matheson, William F. Nolan, Gary Braunbeck, Thomas Monteleone, John Shirley and an introduction by Ramsey Campbell. This anthology is edited by Christopher Conlon.

As an added bonus, He Is Legend features the original full-length screenplay "Conjure Wife" -- over 20,000 never-before published words by Richard Matheson himself, in collaboration with the late Charles Beaumont that was filmed as "Burn, Witch Burn."

Reviews

"He Is Legend is a book that will totally immerse the reader into the chilling universe that is the mind of the brilliant Richard Matheson. Each of the included stories is a flawless gem filled with the addictive kind of terror that will leave the reader breathless yet begging for more. It is a most fitting tribute to one of the true giants of Twentieth Century literature." -- Norman Rubinstein, Horror World

"Very rarely is a great writer honored in such a fashion as Gauntlet Press has done for Richard Matheson…. This volume is filled with the works of the best writers in the business…This book was created by fans of Richard Matheson especially for other fans of Richard Matheson."

-- Zacherley's Picks



"This is a staggeringly good anthology worth both your time and money."
