Ramsey Campbell recommends
Horror Movie (2024)
Paul Tremblay
"Nothing is predictable about Paul Tremblay except his unpredictability and inventiveness. Horror Movie is an inspiringly original take on the lost horror film, disturbing and challenging in ways few authors in our field can manage. The more he writes, the more it looks as if he's creating his own genre, the Tremblay. May it continue to surprise us."
Nestlings (2023)
Nat Cassidy
"Nat Cassidy is a master of creeping fear, of urban unease, of uncanny dread and outright horror. In Nestlings he brings his considerable imagination to bear on a creature we may think we're all too familiar with and imbues it with new life, reclaiming it for terror. It's a triumph and a vision you won't soon forget."
Blight (2023)
Tom Carlisle
"Tom Carlisle combines his gothic elements - the cursed landowning family, the uncanny pact, the lurking primal presence, the dark side of faery, the hero's reluctant return to his roots - into a potent magical brew often evocative of Machen but grippingly original."
