Cover art for The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones

The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is a masterwork of revenge fiction, coated with one of the most original spins on the vampire I’ve ever experienced. It’s going to be remembered as a classic!

Review: The Peregrine Estate trilogy by C.S. Humble

April 3, 2025 by Josh Hanson Leave a Comment

Review: When I first discovered C.S. Humble’s The Massacre at Yellow Hill, I was giddy. That book mixes a gritty western mythos with vampires, secret societies, and cosmic horror, but more importantly, it does what I come to story for: it gave me new people to love. Gilbert Ptolemy and his adopted son, Carson; Tabitha […]

Review: Vampires of El Norte by Isabel Cañas

October 2, 2024 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

In short, Isabel Cañas’ Vampire of El Norte is everything you could possibly wish for in a Mexican gothic, with rich folklore, beautiful and atmospheric prose, complex characters, and a forbidden romance rooted in cultural and historical authenticity, to die for. Not to mention how incredibly it shows the “other side” of the Mexican-American war of the late 1840s, in ways you rarely see in mainstream media.

Review: His Ragged Company by Rance D. Denton (The Testimonies of Elias Faust #1)

July 9, 2024 by Tom Bookbeard Leave a Comment

His Ragged Company gives us the chance to splatter and swear our way through a kooky western with all the obscene violence of a Tarantino flick. Seriously, what’s not to like about that?
