Gary A Braunbeck recommends

The Licking Valley Coon Hunters Club (2000) Brian A Hopkins "Imagine a parallel universe wherein Davis Grubb and Andrew Vaches had written a chase film for Sam Peckinpah, and you may have some idea of the surprising scope and depth of this short but damned impressive novel; suspenseful, violent, lean, poetic, and even thoughtful, The Licking Valley Coon Hunters Club is a return to what originally made the thriller great, before brutality and shock were mistaken for action and suspense..."	Escaping Purgatory: Fables in Words and Pictures (2001) Gary A Braunbeck and Alan M Clark "I am both delighted and humbled to be collaborating with Alan Clark on one of IFD's first projects, a collection of thematically-linked short stories, novellas, and art entitled Escaping Purgatory (and which contains, methinks, some of the best writing and artwork either of us has ever produced). IFD Publishing is offering myself--and other writers and artists--a chance to create and present work in a manner unique to the publishing world: without interference, and with deep respect for the individual vision. The creative experience doesn't get any purer or better than this."	100 Jolts: Shockingly Short Stories (2004) Michael A Arnzen "100 Jolts delivers far more than is promised by its title; with this magnificent collection of literate and disturbing short-shorts, some which are among the darkly funniest I've ever read, Arnzen can rightfully claim his place as the Donald Barthelme of horror. This book is a remarkable achievement."
November Mourns (2005) Tom Piccirilli "A novel of supreme and mesmerizing power that reads like a head-on collision between Flannery O'Connor and M. R. James...A masterpiece."	Heretic (2005) (Templar Chronicles, book 1) Joseph Nassise "HERETIC has it all -- action, suspense, terror, sharp dialogue, a dynamite central concept, and richly-drawn characterization. Don't try pigeon-holing this book, because Nassise -- like his Templar Knights -- doesn't stand still long enough for you to take aim. This is cross-genre fiction at its absolute best. I, for one, cannot wait for the next book in what promises to be a long and rewarding series."	Thundershowers At Dusk (2006) Christopher Conlon "The finest writer you haven�t read, but damned well ought to be reading."
The Hollower (2007) Mary SanGiovanni "The kind of debut most horror writers dream about. Filled to the brim with mounting terror."
