-- Ellen Datlow, editor of the annual Best Horror of the Year "If you aren't a horror fan after reading this, then check your pulse. No, seriously, check it, just in case."
-- Paul Tremblay, bestselling author of The Cabin at the End of the World "Move over Necronomicon, our own Mother Horror brings us a new dark compendium. From cosmic horror to body horror, to slashers and serial killers and straight up creepy ass kids, Sadie Hartmann offers up recommendations for some of the most memorable works of horror in our times. A fantastic guide for anyone looking to feed the devouring empty void in their soul--or fill up a bookshelf."
