The scarce Fantasy Masterworks edition from 2002. Shows a fair amount of wear with creases to spine and light scratching and creasing to covers. Text block is clean. Introduction by China Mieville. From the chilling adventure tale of the sea, The Boats of the \'Glen Carrig\', and the power and horror of The Ghost Pirates, to the strange and haunting vision of the House on the Borderland and the bizarre and wonderfully imaginative The Night Land, the four great novels of William Hope Hodgson are universally recognized as one of the landmarks in the literature of the weird and fantastic. Strange and compelling, these are powerful works that exercise the same fascination today as they did on Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith, and all four are collected here.
