Book Synopsis
Eerie and unnerving events are welcome reads for horror and weird fiction aficionados, and Kurt Fawver's new collection does not fail to deliver. A group of work-study students grows obsessed with a particular, otherworldly room at the university library. A monster's mother wants her to assume a traditional life. A mysterious calling haunts an elderly man at a nursing home. And strange and macabre Halloween traditions draw a writer to a remote Pennsylvania town.
Review Quotes
"...takes the traditional motifs of Lovecraft country--shunned farms, cryptic locals, curses from out of time and space--and makes them scream again with both fear and wonder. This is a satisfying exploration of 'seething, conscious torment.'" - Publishers Weekly
