Paul Kane recommends
Marginal (2024)
Tom Carlisle
"An intriguing folk horror novel, with a Faustian twist and a family drama at its core - right up my street!"
The Synapse Sequence (2018)
Daniel Godfrey
"Reads like Philip K. Dick or Black Mirror meets Michael Crichton, by way of film noir...you really can't go wrong with this one!"
Hekla's Children (2017)
James Brogden
"Hekla’s Children is at once a very modern dark fantasy, which also harks back to the classics of the genre."
