"I'm a handful of pages into this one and struggling. I definitely prefer horror fiction firmly rooted in character and the cold, distant third-person narration here is making things very difficult." Dec 11, 2023 12:33PM

Neil Gaiman
“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
Neil Gaiman, Coraline

Steven Erikson
“Children are dying."
Lull nodded. "That's a succinct summary of humankind, I'd say. Who needs tomes and volumes of history? Children are dying. The injustices of the world hide in those three words.”
Steven Erikson, Deadhouse Gates

H.P. Lovecraft
“The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown”
H.P. Lovecraft, Supernatural Horror in Literature

Glen Cook
“Every ounce of my cynicism is supported by historical precedent.”
Glen Cook, Shadow Games

H.P. Lovecraft
“I have seen the dark universe yawning
Where the black planets roll without aim,
Where they roll in their horror unheeded,
Without knowledge, or lustre, or name.”
H. P. Lovecraft, Nemesis
