Valancourt Books reissued Karl Edward Wagner's In a Lonely Place. Is this a good collection of horror stories?

I second Baylor. Wagner writes in the American style handed down from Hammett and Hemingway via the pulps, so there's that. He knew how to arrange a story for maximum effect, and I consider "Sticks" and "The River of Night's Dreaming" two of the best horror stories coming out of the 1970s-'80s, both are included in the collection.
