Unknowingly he brought the claw home. Beautiful, hypnotic, ancient, it was the sacred -- and deadly -- talisman of the fabled Leopard Men of Africa.

In Paperbacks from Hell by Grady Hendrix, Ramsay's writing is described as schizophrenic. Grady says that "giving oneself over to Campbell's writing feels a bit like losing one's mind" (p. 123) and notes him as one of the genre's best writers (p. 191). His original paperbacks are becoming harder to acquire.
