Review Quotes
"Sabbath of the Fox-Devils is coming-of-age gone wrong, a celebration of the Satan-soaked stories that hooked us all on horror and a satire of the people who hate them. I bet my soul you'll enjoy it as much as I did." - Katy Michelle Quinn, author of Winnie
"It's been said good writing comes from opening a vein and bleeding on the page. Anyone who's read Sam Richard knows his writing epitomizes this visceral process. Sabbath of the Fox Devils, both a wistful love letter to schlocky horror and a sentimental character study, is no different. It's a confidently-written, refined novella without sacrificing the rawness which made Sam's previous works so memorable. Fans of 80s horror, Scooby-Doo, and punk rock will find lots to love here." - Lucas Mangum, author of Saint Sadist & Gods of the Dark Web
"Light the black candles and invert the cross as Sam Richard conjures a coming-of-age story of Satanic panic, creature carnage, and blasphemous terror!" - Ryan Harding (Genital Grinder, Header 3)
