Mary SanGiovanni recommends

Monstrous (2026)
Bryan Smith
"Bryan Smith has written a masterwork of cosmic horror, a swirling vortex of the surreal and the gritty, the beautiful and the terrible, the disorienting and the distorted into one cohesive and utterly terrifying story. Forget your understanding of reality; it's the plaything of something MONSTROUS. This is cosmic horror at its best."

Downlines (2023)
Kristin Dearborn
"Dearborn has a sharp eye for the monstrosities of the real world, the complacency, the secrecy, the cruelty and the hatred, and the fear that makes the world around us a little more hazardous."

Closing Costs (2018)
Wesley Southard
"While one might note echoes of Richard Laymon, Southard's voice is all his own, and he uses it to deliver a compelling and powerfully enjoyable read."
