the doll maker; a tale of terror


i was sent this scan in of the frount and back of an old pulp horror book.

does anyone know anything about it? anyone ever read it?

is what was once considered horror, is for some of us a wet dream and fantasy to be realised.....?

i know a japanese horror movie with the same name, maybe from the book.
it was an ok movie, but nothing exiting about the doll...

Long past print. Tartarus Press reprinted it in small press a few years back. I'd picked it up at the 2003 World Fantasy Convention.

Dark fantasy involving what appears at first to be a girl's first romance, and it progresses into a mystical enslavement as a young sorcerer looks to add a new doll to his tiny village.
