Steve Toutonghi
"A searing, ballistic plunge into the mysteries of identity and mortality."
Available Dark (2012)
(Cass Neary, book 2)
Elizabeth Hand
"Photographer and aging NYC punk rocker, Cass Neary is one of literature's great noir anti-heroes. Ferocious, aching with compassion and cruelly brilliant, Available Dark is a sinful pleasure."

Paul Malmont
"Affectionate and entertaining...An adventure that swoops from romp to chills, from humor to dread. Malmont's big, lush novel is sly and charming, nostalgic and intiguing fun."
