Reviews
Praise for The Buffalo Hunter Hunter "For me and vampires, there is Stoker, there is Rice, and now there is Jones. It's harrowing, agonizing, nuanced, and downright philosophical. Very likely Jones's masterpiece." --Daniel Kraus, New York Times bestselling author of Whalefall "Stephen Graham Jones has lit a slow-burning candle that grows into a forest fire, illuminating the life of a Pikuni vampire and everyone he has touched, the pain of being a victim and perpetrator of violent history, and how memory serves to keep us who we are despite it all. The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is beautiful, terrifying, sad, funny, and grotesque -- everything I want in a novel." --Jessica Johns, author of Bad Cree "A master at blending horror, suspense, and culturally rich stories that are as thought-provoking as they are spine-tingling. Jones's singular voice and exploration of identity, of trauma and survival, make every page pulse with kinetic urgency." --David Robertson, author of The Theory of Crows
