What readers are saying ...
"Brian Moreland's mixture of crime, drama, suspense, horror, the supernatural, the occult, and history always makes his stories jump off the page as if they should be on the big screen."
--Oh for the Hook of a Book"
"Brian Moreland is a thinking man's horror novelist. He's not content to merely tell a story that chills you. He wants you to feel gutted by that story to the point that you reassess your life." --iHorror.com
"Brian Moreland writes a blend of survival horror and occult mystery that I find impossible to resist. His writing is clean, precise, and, best of all, compulsively readable. I know, when I've got one of his books in my hands, that I'm going to be lost to the world for hours on end. He's just that good."--Joe McKinney, author of Dead City and Flesh Eaters
"Moreland combines the best of what I love about horror fiction, impeccable prose, characters with a life-like depth, fantastic monsters and a palpable sense of dread that seemingly lunges off the pages and grabs you by the throat." --Reviewer Peter Schwotzer, Famous Monsters in Filmland
