Sinossi

This edition includes the following editor's introduction: The importance of Robert William Chambers for fantasy literature


Originally published in 1911, “The Common Law” is a novel by American artist and fiction writer Robert W. Chambers, best known for his book of short stories entitled “The King In Yellow.”

“The Common Law” tells the story of an artist, Louis "Kelly" Neville, who is already famous, but finds greatness easier to talk about than achieve. Chance conversation with the model for his new project leads him to put his theories about creativity, society, and love to the test, and he finds that other people have their own ideas about how all of these should go, from his closest friends and rivals to the woman who warms his heart. Indeed, love itself may cost him everything, including his artistic inspiration. Is he willing to pay the price? And even if he is, can he?

    It began when Bill's hands began to cramp in odd and painful grips each morning. Soon he finds himself helpless as his body grows progressively more numb each day. His illness is a medical mystery. Although his mind is sharp and active, he can only watch as he inexplicably withers and decays into complete paralysis.  
    Awaking on his 40th day in the hospital, his family and friends from church find that he is miraculously cured. Bill's hands and limbs have begun to move and feel, but they do so with a life all of their own. Bill is still trapped, defenseless within his own body. Whatever is controlling his actions has a dark and terrifying intent, yet no one sees beyond his miraculous healing.

    Evil has taken control of the monastery. In search of a solution, Hildegard is drawn into a profound murder mystery driven by her worst nightmares. 
    The Evil Abess 
    A Cloister Mystery 
    The bells toll. The blood dries. The prayers go on. 
    In the year of our Lord 1123, something unpleasant is growing behind the abbey walls. It smells like murder, sounds like chanting, and behaves very much like a cover-up. 
    Sister Hildegard has never been particularly obedient. She sees too much. She hears what isn't said. And she asks questions no nun should. 
    Now someone is punishing sins that haven't been confessed—and the Rule of Saint Benedict offers no guidance for corpses in the cloister. 
    The abbess says it's the Devil. 
    Hildegard suspects something worse. 
    Something local. 
    A tale of sacred rituals, petty power struggles, and suspicious silence, The Evil Abess reveals what happens when the truly faithful stop forgiving—and start investigating.
