About This Book
One of the most influential vampire novels of the 20th century, I Am Legend
regularly appears on the "10 Best" lists of numerous critical studies of the
horror genre.
As Richard Matheson's third novel, it was first marketed as science fiction (for
although written in 1954, the story takes place in a future 1976). A terrible
plague has decimated the world, and those who were unfortunate enough to survive
have been transformed into blood-thirsty creatures of the night. Except, that
is, for Robert Neville. He alone appears to be immune to this disease, but the
grim irony is that now he is the outsider. He is the legendary monster who must
be destroyed because he is different from everyone else.
Employing a stark, almost documentary style, Richard Matheson was one of the
first writers to convince us that the undead can lurk in a local supermarket
freezer as well as a remote Gothic castle. His influence on a generation of
bestselling authors--including Stephen King and Dean Koontz--who first read him
in their youth is, well, legendary. --Stanley Wiater
