Book-length novel: "The Valley of Silent Men" by E. Charles Vivian - It was a nightmare place of devilish beauty -- and horror, brooded over by the slow-death poison of a plant that was seeded in hell! And into its silent menace one man must go, to save its self-willed prisoners from its fatal lure. Short story: "The Counter Charm" by Margaret St. Clair - The bug-eyed monster in the life of Unearthly Tales' editor was a real-life nuisance -- at first. That was bad enough. But when it chased him right into the pages of his own magazine -- that was very bad!
