Monster 2 continues the series with essays on ghostbreakers and their traditions, why the Horror genre must be scary and why to write it. There is a lengthy section on the Strange Northerns of Algernon Blackwood including a solid piece on Ithaqua the Wind-Walker and its beginnings with Blackwood. This is followed by pieces on Jim Kjelgaard and the other fantastical writers who came out of Milwaukee like Robert Bloch. We get robots in Weird Tales, as well as the early Science Ficton of John Wyndham. Articles on Francis Flagg, S. P Meek and Eando Binder. In the Sword & Sorcery section there is plenty on L. Sprague de Camp as well as the Cthulhu Mythos in the Conan saga. The appendixes of this book include pieces on leaving your legacy to your children and the One Hundred Year Test that separates fads from forever books.
