Description
Halloween Night, 1954. A young, film-obsessed scriptwriter has just been hired at one of the great studios. An anonymous investigation leads from the giant Maximus Films backlot to an eerie graveyard separated from the studio by a single wall. There he makes a terrifying discovery that thrusts him into a maelstrom of intrigue and mystery--and into the dizzy exhilaration of the movie industry at the height of its glittering power.

Critical Reviews
"Bradbury soars with a poetic ebulliance that is dazzling . . . [He] pulls out all the stops in this nostalgic magnum opus and gives us an all-American fireworks show of richly intermingled myths and memories."--" Playboy""For anyone who grew up on Bradbury's stories, this . . . is like camping out with Santa Claus . . . Bradbury has convincingly conjured a lost world, 'lovelier than tonight or all the nights to come'."--" Newsweek"
