The Readers' Advisory Guide to Horror
Vampires, zombies, ghosts, and ghoulies: there are more things going bump in the night than ever. So how do you wend your way through all of them to find the ones that interest a particular reader? RA expert Spratford updates her advisory to include the latest in monsters and the macabre, including<br><ul><li>Lists of recommended titles, authors, and sub-genres, all cross-referenced for quick reference</li><li>Tips for effectively practicing horror RA, with interview questions for gauging a reader s interests</li><li>An expanded resources section, with an overview addressing the current state of horror lit, and suggestions of how to dig deeper</li></ul>As both an introductory guide for librarians just dipping their toes into the brackish water of scary fiction, as well as a fount of new ideas for horror-aware reference staff, Spratford s book is infernally appropriate.
