Review: “The Residence” by Andrew Pyper
Canadian author Andrew Pyper burst onto the crime-fiction scene with his horrific whodunnit Lost Girls, about two teenaged girls killed in northern Ontario—and the supernatural history of the town in which they’re murdered. It was one of those debuts that makes you...
Review: “Antkind” by Charlie Kaufman
Are you a fan of Spike Jonz’s Being John Malkovich? How about his film Adaptation? If so, you’re familiar with the screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, the out-of-leftfield writer who seems to live inside his own head. His writing is always a trippy wander through a...
Review: “Devolution” by Max Brooks
Did you know that Mel Brooks’ son is responsible for some of the most foundational zombie books of the 21st century? Max Brooks’ The Zombie Survival Guide debuted in 2003 and ascended the charts until it attained international bestseller status, becoming a fixture on...

William Gibson burst onto the sci-fi scene in 1984 with his groundbreaking paperback original Neuromancer, which provided the foundation for a whole new genre called cyberpunk (and which was influenced heavily by Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner). Gibson even coined the...

Review: “That Left Turn at Albuquerque” by Scott Phillips
Scott Phillips burst onto the crime scene with his superb, pitch-black thriller The Ice Harvest, which was made into pretty good film starring John Cusack and Billy Bob Thornton—but the original novel has an evil-grin dark humor that’ll knock you flat. Published in...
Review: “Full Throttle” by Joe Hill
The secret’s been out for years now, but in case you didn’t know it—and in case you’ve never seen a photo of him—Joe Hill is the son of Stephen King. He came admirably to prominence outside the shadow of his father with the excellent collection of short stories, 20th...
Review: “Horror Stories” by Liz Phair
You might remember Liz Phair as an iconic, foul-mouthed feminist rocker from the early 1990s. She burst onto the music scene in ’93 with her Exile in Guyville album, and has kept up an intriguing though inconsistent career with such works as Whip-Smart and...
