Paul Di Filippo recommends
Old House of Fear (1961)
Russell Kirk
"Plainly modelled on the thrillers of John Buchan... no paranormal events actually occur."
Masque of Dreams (2001)
Bruce Boston
"...turns out short meticulously assembled stories informed by a poet's precision and clarity of image"
Precious Dragon (2007)
(Detective Inspector Chen, book 3)
Liz Williams
"Williams joins A.A. Attanasio and China Miéville as one of the best contemporary practitioners of a kind of imaginative literature that fuses the intellect of SF with the heart of fantasy."
Flats / Quake (2009)
Rudolph Wurlitzer
"If you can legitimately judge a writer by fellow scribes who honestly extol his work, and count on his inhabiting a plane of popularity and celebrity similar to the one where his endorsers dwell, then Rudolph Wurlitzer should be a name on the lips of sage critics and fans of zesty, transgressive postmodernist fiction everywhere. Wurlitzer might be the closest thing we have to an actual cult author, a highly talented fiction writer."
Dark Intelligence (2015)
(Transformation , book 1)
Neal Asher
"What Asher delivers here is state-of-the-art SF on so many levels … a compelling, smart read."
Wylding Hall (2015)
Elizabeth Hand
"Somewhere up in rock ’n’ roll heaven, Janis Joplin, Brian Jones, Nick Drake and Sandy Denny are all tossing back their drinks, passing a spliff, and recounting how much they enjoyed reading Elizabeth Hand’s shimmering new supernatural novel, Wylding Hall. . . . By turns melancholic and joyous, dark and incandescent, this always-surprising tale is full of heart, music and wonder."
Master Assassins (2018)
(Fire Sacraments, book 1)
Robert V S Redick
"Redick’s powers of invention in this book are superb. He manages to reinvigorate his chosen mode of heroic fantasy by sheer force of description, his language always muscular, vibrant and well-calculated. The cast of characters is vast and believable . . . A hell of a ride."
The Dreaming Tree (2019)
(Delta Devlin, book 1)
Matthew Mather
"A nightmare odyssey...a twin-barreled blast of creepy, high-tech, gothic grue."
