  44. About the Author

The right side of his face was concealed by a leather mask bound to his head with straps, but upon the leather itself was sculpted a white wax image of the handsome side, the wax adorned with small sparkling moonstones along its edges, which were pressed tightly along the hairline and to the unseen ruin below. Half his mouth was covered by the leather, the lips molded in white wax.

The eye on the right side was formed of shining gold.

It bore a pupil of the deepest scarlet.

The man spoke, only the left portion of the lips able to move.

“Sold,” said Maccabeus DeKay.

About the Author

About the Author

Robert McCammon (b. 1952) is one of the country’s most accomplished authors of modern horror and historical fiction, and a founder of the Horror Writers Association. Raised by his grandparents in Birmingham, Alabama, Bram Stoker and World Fantasy Award–winning McCammon published his first novel, the Revelations-inspired Baal, when he was only twenty-six. His writings continued in a supernatural vein throughout the 1980s, as he produced such bestselling titles as Swan Song, The Wolf’s Hour, and Stinger.

In 1991, Boy’s Life won the World Fantasy Award for best novel. After his next novel, Gone South, McCammon took a break from writing to spend more time with his family. He did not publish another novel until 2002’s Speaks the Nightbird. Since then, he has followed “problem-solver” Matthew Corbett through seven sequels, in addition to writing several non-series books, including The Border and The Listener. McCammon still lives in Birmingham.
