Gary McMahon recommends
thumb
The Crying Forest (2020)
Venero Armanno
"The Crying Forest is a compelling folk horror story that combines elements of crime fiction and the occult to create a unique vision of a world teeming with ghosts, shapeshifters, and a profoundly human evil. The writing is crisp the authorial voice assured, and the horror is real and gritty."
thumb
The Abyssal Plain (2019)
(R'lyeh Cycle, book 1)
William Holloway and Brett J Talley
"This kind of smart, well-written pulp horror is a joy to read. Tense, creepy, action-paced, and-of course-wonderfully horrific."
thumb
Agents of Dreamland (2017)
(Tinfoil Dossier, book 1)
Caitlín R Kiernan
"Caitlín Kiernan is one of the great stylists of horror fiction, and this novella is a triumph. It bristles with energy and ideas -- ideas that seem to spill off the page -- and everything is underpinned by a sense of cosmic bleakness that took my breath away. I fell in love with the characters. The story pulled me along by the nose. I honestly didn't want it to end."
