The Graveyard Book
by Neil Gaiman
Cemeteries don’t scare Neil Gaiman. Far from it. The best-selling author of horror and fantasy fables finds them “incredibly peaceful places.”
“I love going to graveyards. I love going to graveyards not because they’re spooky, but because there’s something marvelously restful. You know, you’ve got all these headstones. They have these wonderful little messages on them,” Gaiman says.
Graveyard’s a nurturing place in Gaiman’s new book – Yahoo! News.

The Happiest Days of Our Lives by Wil Wheaton – Review
about 4 months ago - No comments
Actor turned writer Wil Wheaton has carved a niche for himself with his latest book which contains a series of short stories concerning his life growing up through the eighties and beyond. This is his third book, following Dancing Barefoot and Just a Geek, and has been made possible due to the previous two being
Mr. Shivers by Robert Jackson Bennett – Review
about 6 months ago - No comments
Mr. Shivers by Robert Jackson Bennett Mr. Shivers was easily one of the most highly anticipated novels of early 2010 for me – the blend of horror, gritty realism, and the bleakness of the Great Depression setting instantly appealed to me, and I was ecstatic when I received an ARC for the title. Add to
Night Caller by Daniel Ransom – Review
about 7 months ago - No comments
Night Caller by Daniel Ransom Night Caller is, simply put, damn fun. It is a fast read—maybe 90 minutes of reading time—and fits the bill perfectly if you’re in the mood for light horror. And, if there are any producers out there, it would make a terrific television movie. Maybe something similar—in production values and

Mister Slaughter by Robert McCammon The final meeting of Corbett and Mister Slaughter involves so many disturbing and complicated story lines, one has no choice but to rip through the pages of this unique and gritty thriller in order to find out if the horror being suggested is actually true.

A Is for Alien by Caitlin R. Kiernan If you’re a fan of both horror and science-fiction and have yet to give Kiernan a try A is for Alien is an excellent opportunity to experience her unique style.  While her longer fiction tends to be related, it isn’t a true series (at least I don’t think
The Strain by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan – Mini Review
about 1 year ago - No comments
The Strain by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan Guillermo del Toro is a name most movie fans will be familiar with. Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy and Blade II to name but three of his awesome movies. (Hellboy II: The Golden Army however is NOT an awesome movie, a terrible one it be). So, how does
Thieving Fear by Ramsey Campbell – Review
about 1 year ago - No comments
Thieving Fear by Ramsey Campbell It’s impossible, as a reader, not to get caught up in the panic felt by each of the protagonists. For a novel in which there is barely any gore, the scares come from a deeply psychological angle. For me, Campbell has always been a master of the psychological scare and
Garbage Man by Joseph D’Lacey – Review
about 1 year ago - No comments
The Garbage Man by Joseph D’Lacey The nature of the story means there are no subtle, supernatural influences at work here, it’s all pretty basic stuff, reminiscent, perhaps of some of the classic eighties horror writing. It’s an entertaining if slightly guilt ridden trip. Joseph D’Lacey is certainly ploughing himself his own furrow with his
Glister by John Burnside – Review
about 1 year ago - No comments
The Glister: A Novel by John Burnside Glister is a remarkable book – in places social realism and grit, in places teenage angst; the almost complete isolation of the Innertown from the outside world is so implausible that it’s a stark counterpoint to the grimy daily lives of the inhabitants (it’s like a kind of
