Steve Rasnic Tem recommends
The Best of Our Past, the Worst of Our Future (2023)
Christi Nogle
"Christi Nogle uses lush, inventive descriptions with surreal touches to create stories which both haunt and surprise. Her voice is distinctive, her characters richly and deeply portrayed. I was swept away."
Halloween Season (2020)
Lucy A Snyder
"Lucy Snyder’s stories have a natural, folksy feel. At first they seem like the kinds of stories your aunt might tell you, or your grandmother. The characters feel quite familiar—you might recognize a neighbor, or a favorite uncle. Snyder’s impressive ear for the way real people actually talk draws you in, and sometimes you’re well into a story before you realize just how disturbing the situation she’s narrating actually is. And when the horror does come it is precisely, almost lovingly described. I’m always eager to see a Lucy Snyder story in the table of contents because I know it’s going to be one of the most original in the book."
Slob (1987)
(Chaingang, book 1)
Rex Miller
"We need these periodic trips into the human heart of darkness. In Slob Rex Miller undertakes this journey with uncompromising language and story."
