Edgeworks 3: The Harlan Ellison Hornbook & Harlan Ellison's Movie
Edgeworks 3 The Harlan Ellison Hornbook Harlan Ellison's Movie Author:Harlan Ellison We come now to Volume 3 of the ambitious Edgeworks program, in which White Wolf and its Borealis Legends imprint continue to release nearly every book ever written by Harlan Ellison.
