The larger BookPulpers stores usually have a title or two,
such as when Tor sensibly paired CONJURE WIFE and OUR LADY OF
DARKNESS in one volume, two superb short horror novels (so
tagged by Tor), and of course the 'Pulpers put them in their
science fiction sections.
TM [aside from Leiber's Spillane parody, "The Night He
Cried," and some horror-CF crossover material such as "I'm
Looking for Jeff" (in Howard Browne's FANTASTIC in '52),
Leiber also wrote some relatively straightforward CF which at
least edges toward hb, including "Schizo Jimmie" in a 1960
SAINT MM...and more I haven't read yet...]
The sad thing is that the "genres" are supposedly "pop"
fiction already...

If the shelves of said establishment contained works by Fritz
Leiber, I would be lenient. It would be a joint classier than
most (H.W. Fowler, get away from me!).
