      The William Hope Hodgson Megapack is copyright © 2014 by Wildside Press. Published by Wildside Press LLC. All rights reserved. Cover art copyright © 2014 by Saiheng / Fotolia.com

      “A Note About Hodgson,” by Darrell Schweitzer, is copyright © 2005 by Wildside Press. “Notes on Hodgson,” by H. P. Lovecraft, is taken from Supernatural Horror in Literature, first published in 1927 in The Recluse and later revised circa 1933–1934.

      A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER

      Just a quick note for this volume; the essay on Hodgson by author Darrell Schweitzer and the introduction by H.P. Lovecraft (extracted from Supernatural Horror in Literature) are fairly definitely assesments of the author and his classic works.

      Enjoy.

      ABOUT THE MEGAPACKS

      Over the last few years, our “Megapack” series of ebook anthologies has grown to be among our most popular endeavors. (Maybe it helps that we sometimes offer them as premiums to our mailing list!) One question we keep getting asked is, “Who’s the editor?”

      The Megapacks (except where specifically credited) are a group effort. Everyone at Wildside works on them. This includes John Betancourt (me), Carla Coupe, Steve Coupe, Bonner Menking, Colin Azariah-Kribbs, A.E. Warren, and many of Wildside’s authors…who often suggest stories to include (and not just their own!)

      RECOMMEND A FAVORITE STORY?

      Do you know a great classic science fiction story, or have a favorite author whom you believe is perfect for the Megapack series? We’d love your suggestions! You can post them on our message board at http://movies.ning.com/forum (there is an area for Wildside Press comments).

      Note: we only consider stories that have already been professionally published. This is not a market for new works.

      TYPOS

      Unfortunately, as hard as we try, a few typos do slip through. We update our ebooks periodically, so make sure you have the current version (or download a fresh copy if it’s been sitting in your ebook reader for months.) It may have already been updated.

      If you spot a new typo, please let us know. We’ll fix it for everyone. You can email the publisher at [email protected] or use the message boards above.
