Autor

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1913?) was an American writer, critic and essayist, famous for works of satire and cynicism such as The Devil's Dictionary. He wrote over 200 short, fictive stories including a number of horror stories and weird tales. His stories remain fresh and unconventional when it comes to the unraveling of strange events. Mike Ashley is an author, anthologist and editor with a specialism for seeking out rare strange stories from the periodicals and magazines of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. He is an expert in the fields of weird fiction and classic mystery stories, and a leading authority on the history and development of the occult detection tale.
