A Night In The Lonesome October is Roger Zelazny's final, addicting tale. Thirty one chapters on what really happens on Halloween!

Snuff, an incredible guard dog, watches over a number of curses for his master, Jack while assisting him in their nightly endeavors and spying on their colleagues. Together, they are working to keep a door closed that others want open. This happens every Halloween. A familiar enough cast of characters gathers, some Openers and some are Closers. Who, in the end, will win?

This is such an amazing story! I hear tells some folks read it a chapter a day in October, as a tribute. Zelazny is really a master.

I found this beautiful reprint at a used bookstore. I am thrilled to add it to my collection.
