Elizabeth Sagewood Reviews Peel Back and See
"Mike Thorn writes sort of flawed, delinquent kind of characters really, really well, people who have a little bit of darkness in them, or delinquent teenagers, that sort of thing. He does a fantastic job writing those sorts of characters."

Book Blather Reviews Peel Back and See
"Some of the Lovecraftian entities that you see, I think are representative of some real-life horrors of mental illness and psychological trauma. There's a lot of exploration of things like depression, and suicidal thoughts, and obsession, and addiction, and loss, both in terms of broken relationships and death."

Mike Thorn Interviewed About Peel Back and See in The Gauntlet
“When you have the wide open world of a fictional medium, you can allow yourself to explore, to be a little bit reckless and go to some really uncomfortable places. Peel Back and See probably goes further, in terms of my discomfort as a writer, than either of my previous books. We’ll see how readers feel about that, but it was liberating for me.”
