Henry Kuttner deserves to be better known. A contemporary, and friend, of August Derleth, Clark Ashston-Smith, Seabury Quinn, Ray Bradbury, Richard Matheson, and H.P. Lovecraft, he contributed stories to the Cthulu Mythos and, like many genre authors of his era, wrote copiously for Weird Tales magazine. Part of the reason he never achieved the notoriety of his peers may be owed to his habit of adopting pseudonyms (his Wikipedia entry lists sixteen known false names!) but the work he left behind, which has been much anthologised since - especially The Graveyard Rats , a black and grippingly claustrophobic shocker - has ensured him in a place in the dark hearts of vintage horror fans.
