The Hollow Man - a telepathic widower goes on the run. Story inspired by Dante's Inferno, I believe. The only book I've read in one sitting overnight. Prayers to Broken Stones - a book of short stories, contains the original novella of 'Carrion Comfort' (which works rather better, I believe, than the full novel), and some other classics, including Metastasis. A really interesting author; I'm glad he was writing.
