Blood Relations (2020)
Kristopher Triana

Ocean Grave (2019)
Matt Serafini
"Serafini is near the very top of his class in his generation of genre writers."
Southern Gods (2011)
John Hornor Jacobs
"John Hornor Jacobs. Remember the name, because if there's any justice in the universe, he's going to be a big deal one day soon. John's prose is by turns lyrical and tough-as-nails. He effortlessly conjures an eerie southern landscape that will surely haunt the dreams of anyone who reads Southern Gods."
