Summary:

Strange Itineraries takes you down haunted byways into the heart of Tim Powers country, where you will find turbulent ghosts, secretive immortals, and mysterious Ether Bunnies. Containing all of Powers's short fiction to date, including his delightful collaborations with James P. Blaylock, Strange Itineraries will enchant you and lead you astray.

Like Michael Crichton, Neal Stephenson, and Clive Barker, Tim Powers leads the reader down dark alleyways where history, fantasy, science, and suspense combine to create a compelling new reality. His recent novel Declare, a supernatural secret history of post-WWII espionage, won both the World Fantasy Award and the International Horror Guild Award. Powers is also a two-time recipient of the Philip K. Dick Award for The Anubis Gates and Dinner at Deviant's Palace, and a three-time Locus Award winner.
