"Wayne Miller is a writer's writer. A long-time pro whose fiction is so seamless, you don't notice the barbs and sharp edges until it's far too late."
-- Thomas F. Monteleone, Bram Stoker winner, author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Writing a Novel and publisher of the Borderlands horror anthologies.

"G. Wayne Miller is one of those authors who invites you in with smooth, literary prose, offers you tea, or whiskey, and then - slowly -as stories progress, and the fire on the hearth gets hotter, sears images into your memory. These are fine, well-wrought tales that leave their mark."
-- David Niall Wilson, author of Deep Blue, This Is My Blood, and Nevermore.

"G. Wayne Miller is a legend in the horror field - writing poetic, vibrant stories that could easily fit in The Twilight Zone or Alfred Hitchcock Presents. VAPORS includes 13 stories that are unforgettable."
