Thu Aug 03 2006McCammon is a great writer but I must ask why Graham Masterton is not on this list? Masterton's The Mirror is a horror classic. The guy is awesome; maybe it is because Masterton is basically known in the UK that he has not ever really gotten his due here in the USA

Wed Feb 01 2006McCammon is wonderful, magical, he puts you in the story and makes you yearn for more. I wish I was from such a town as Boy's Life.

Sun Sep 26 2004McCammon is one of the greatest horror writers of all, though I'd still have to say my favorite is King, though, to me, they write very similar. Both great storytellers, can't really choose one of the other.

Sat Aug 14 2004Can someone help me??? I have been interested in selling my hardback book collection of author signed, with dust jackets but not sure what they are worth. I was wondering if you could help give me a guide line to what is a good starting point for these books. Here are the books I have available that I would like to sell. I only purchased these books because I wanted to meet Mr. McCammon (and what an honor that was) were bought and then shelved. I only read the paperback versions, I guess I wanted the books at the time for posterity. But now I think that a real book lover should have these books. They need to be on a shelf somewhere where they can be shown off. I do not have a proper place to display them. Here are the descriptions of the books as best as I can give. If you are in the Los Angeles area, I would personally bring the books so you may actually see the books and their condition. I also can submit pictures. I would be so grateful to any help you could offer me. ... Read more

Tue Mar 25 2003Without a doubt, my favorite modern horror writer. He is much more consistent than King or Koontz, and a better writer to boot. His latest book "Speaks the Nightbird" is his first after 10 years and it is wonderful; further proof that McCammon is a master.

Sun Apr 15 2001I've read everything Mccammon has written. This man can tell a story! Boy's LIfe and Gone South are my favorite books and I've read them more than once. I actually get hungry for more. I came into this site to find out why he hasn't written anymore and am GREATLY disappointed that he has retired. Maybe he will read this and change his mind. I'm hungry.

Fri Dec 22 2000Robert McCammon is the premiere writer of horror novels, though I don't believe that he is true horror, his books have a lot of diversity to them. Take Wolf's Hour, it has drama, romance, war, a bit of sarcasm, and a man who turns into a wolf. It is unfortunate that he announced his retirement from writing in November 1999, as he will be missed by many who, like me, wish there was just one more book.

Mon Dec 11 2000Robert McCammon is one of the best authors I have ever read. His publication of Swan Song is one of my favorite epics of all time. I would love to know if he is going to be coming out with any new book anytime in the near future he is great!!!!!!
