Ghosts by Gaslight Shortlisted for Aurealis Award
Ghosts by Gaslight, which Jack co-edited with Nick Gevers, has just been shortlisted for the 2011 Aurealis Award in the Best Anthology category.
Jack Dann's work has been compared to Jorge Luis Borges, Roald Dahl, Lewis Carroll, Castaneda, Ray Bradbury, J. G. Ballard, Mark Twain, and Philip K. Dick. Library Journal has called him “a true poet who can create pictures with a few perfect words” and Best Sellers said, “Jack Dann is a mind-warlock whose magicks will confound, disorient, shock, and delight.”
