Something Wicked This Way Comes, by Ray Bradbury

Something Wicked This Way Comes, by Ray Bradbury. 1983 paperback (Panther Books UK). 220 pages, good condition (staining, mainly on the inside covers, first four, and last four pages...rest of the pages are not bad...love the UK cover!).

One of Ray Bradbury’s best-known and most popular novels. For those who still dream and remember, for those yet to experience the hypnotic power of its dark poetry, step inside. The show is about to begin. Cooger & Dark’s Pandemonium Shadow Show has come to Green Town, Illinois, to destroy every life touched by its strange and sinister mystery. The carnival rolls in sometime after midnight, ushering in Halloween a week early. A calliope’s shrill siren song beckons to all with a seductive promise of dreams and youth regained. Two boys will discover the secret of its smoke, mazes, and mirrors; two friends who will soon know all too well the heavy cost of wishes…and the stuff of nightmares.
