This follow-up to the darkly humorous Amphigorey is wittier, more macabre, and more wondrous than ever. Master illustrator and iconic gothic storyteller Edward Gorey gives his fans 20 more nonsensically and mind-bending tales that draw fans and unsuspecting newcomers into a world only he can create. Gorey’s pen-and-ink drawings spur the imagination and satisfy fans of art and good storytelling.

Review of 'Amphigorey Too' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Enjoyable, dark, humorous, surreal stories. Sometimes children's stories, but other times, who knows.

I likes this collection more than "Amphigorey" -- the first one -- though, there are good stories stretched across both.

All the things you'd expect: death, madness, fortune, misfortune, murder, suicide, unfortunate children, terrible children, happy children, and dead children. It has it all!
