I love Farris’s work. SON OF THE ENDLESS NIGHT is one of the greatest demon possession novels ever written. However, I did not like THE FURY. At all. I hope this sequel is much better. Hm. Odd. It’s dedicated to…

WHAT I’M READING NOW: STRANGE VERSUS LOVECRAFT
StrangeHouse Books meets H.P. Lovecraft? How could I not be in?
WHAT I’M READING NOW: McHUMANS by Kevin Strange
I already read the shorter version, which I enjoyed a lot. This one is the “director’s cut,” and I’m eager to see what didn’t make the first cut.
WHAT I’M READING NOW: CANNIBAL FAT CAMP by Mark C.Scioneaux and David C. Hayes
Come on. How could I pass this book up? The cover looks like a Garbage Pail Kid. Not only that, but hey! It’s got a short story by me in the back, pimping for TALES OF QUESTIONABLE TASTE from StrangeHouse!
WHAT I’M READING NOW: BEDBUGS by Rick Hautala and BEER RUN OF THE DEAD by D.F. Noble
Honestly, I’m not a big Hautala fan. There are a handful of really good stories, but his longer fiction just doesn’t do it for me. Luckily, this is a collection, so I’m sure I’ll find something interesting here. BEER…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: DARKNESS, TELL US by Richard Laymon
What can I say about Laymon that I haven’t said before? I wish the guy was still around. He’s a very reliable writer. I’ve never been disappointed with his work so far, and I don’t think this book will be…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: GIANT by Edna Ferber
I love the movie, GIANT, and this is the source material. Jett Rink is a hell of a character, and I can’t wait to see how much of him originated in the novel, and how much James Dean brought to…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: THE ATLANTIC ABOMINATION by John Brunner
When I was a kid, I used to hold books by Brunner with a thumb over the -ner part of his name so I could pretend it was my name. That’s right, how lame and dreamy is that? Anyway, I…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: THE MARTIAN MISSILE by David Grinnell
It’s another Ace double from the old days. I bought the book because John Brunner has a book on the other side. I didn’t really know who David Grinnell was. Imagine my surprise when I found out it was legendary…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: NO WORLD OF THEIR OWN by Poul Anderson
I’ve never been much for Poul Anderson, but this book looks really cool. It also helps that this is an Ace double, meaning on this side of the book is NO WORLD OF THEIR OWN, and if you flip it…
