No I never had a problem with Campbell's writing style, now Straub, his style of writing can be hard to get through sometimes.

The only one I've ever seen is the old Ace edition that went for 35 or 40 cents decades ago and which, of course, cost me about $5 at the used bookstore. I was surprised to see a newer copy. Looks good.

I love Straub but sometimes his wording can be tiresome.

It's strange and really weird in a good way. It's a fast read because its short and well as the old cliche goes " a real page turner".
