The most popular weird fiction books

Weird fiction is for stories too strange to file anywhere else. It borrows from fantasy, horror and science fiction and obeys none of them: cities that should not exist, bodies that change, rules of reality that quietly give way. It suits readers who like being unsettled and surprised more than reassured.
