  • Notes:
    • Month from Amazon.com
    • The layout of the publication / Table of Contents is confusing - there looks like there are more stories than there really are.
      • The Heading "The Spook's Tale" is followed by scene setting text, then has chapter headings interspersed with the story.
      • The heading "Alice's Tale" is followed by scene setting text, then sub-heading "Mouldheels and Maggots" followed by the story.
      • The heading "Grimalkins's Tale" is followed by its scene setting text, then sub-heading "The Witch Assassin" followed by the story.
    • "The Gallery of Villians" is a set of extracts from the series - relating to various villianous characters, plus framing text.
    • The Worldcat record has "2009" presumably because it also lists the 2009 hc's ISBN.
