An enjoyable small-town-horror tale with plenty of gore. A real page-turner.

Awesome! Classic horror novel, but it's not a "pastiche" or "parody" - it's some serious fun. Full review coming soon.

A stunning throw back to old school '80's horror novels, a must read!

A dark coming of age story that fans of McCammon's Boy's Life will enjoy without feeling like they've read it all before, as Newman's voice is uniquely his own. This is my first encounter with this author, and I look forward to reading more by him

“Running a close second [as a writing lesson] was the realization that stopping a piece of work just because it's hard, either emotionally or imaginatively, is a bad idea.

“So I had this problem -- work or starve. So I thought I'd combine the two and decided to become a writer.”
