Praise for Stephen Graham Jones“Stephen Graham Jones is one of our most talented and prolific living writers. . . . Novels can do so much to render actual and possible lives lived. Stephen Graham Jones truly knows how to do this, and how to move us through a story at breakneck (literally) speed. I’ll never see an elk or hunting, or what a horror novel can do the same way again.”
—Tommy Orange, Pulitzer Prize finalist and author of There TherePraise for I Was A Teenage Slasher“The story has a clear love for the splashy slasher films that inspired it, and Jones does a great job of landing the plot’s gorier excesses as the bodies pile up . . . fans of meta horror will find a lot to love as Jones remixes well-worn tropes with glee.”
—Publishers Weekly“Readers will watch something original emerge before their eyes, realizing why everyone needs to be as obsessed with the Slasher as Jones is himself. Suggest to every reader who loves a perfectly rendered time and place or just wants a chilling, captivating, and thought provoking story where every detail matters and every page is worth their time.”
—Booklist, starred review“A playful, self-aware and remarkably gory horror novel.”
—The New York Times“Stephen Graham Jones’s viciously clever, over-the-top, genre-skewing new novel turns a gruesome murderer into 'your friendly neighborhood slasher' . . . spectacularly engaging narrative voice, which is imbued with a street-smart lyricism that makes even the loftiest observations glitter like knife blades."
—New York Times Book Review
