Jim's 4 Books Per Author - Halloween Edition 2025

50 authors, 4 books each , representing some of the best in classic and contemporary horror. Each author had to have written at least 4 books in the horror/dark fantasy genre; that's why some very fine authors and books are absent. I made a conscious decision to sort them alphabetically rather than by author, thinking that users might be more inclined to go through the entire list.
