After being out of print for 10 years, the book of short stories that inspired Guns N' Roses' epic "November Rain" video is back on the market in paperback. The Language Of Fear, a collection of 15 short sci-fi/horror stories by Del James, features an introduction by Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose. The book's entry "Without You" is the tale that specifically inspired GNR's Stephanie Seymour-starring "November Rain" video in 1992. "Del James has a personal knowledge of most of the situations he writes about, and has a love of the gutter from having been there," says Axl Rose of the book's author. Del James has co-written songs as a lyricist with Guns N' Roses as well as Testament, the Almighty, and the Outpatients, and has directed several music videos and written live television for the Ultimate Fighting Championship. He is currently finishing his first novel, A Celebration Of Pain.
