Tight as a drum and soaked in maritime menace. Less lauded than most Lewton but it's a superb psychological chiller so good you'll forgive the misnomer. 1943.

Lets take a moment to remember Tanith Lee today, on what would have been her 78th birthday.

Lee straddled horror, fantasy, romance and science fiction in her sword-and-sorcery in a way few authors did.

Do any of you have a favorite story by Tanith Lee?

Cover for The Birthgrave. Woman in red dances in front of a volcano. There's a man in a robe behind her and a temple-like structure.
