| August Frost is one of my favorite books of all time! I reread it often. It's a beautiful, introspective magical realism story about a young man whose body changes with the seasons. It's rife with meaning and creativity. I hope you pick it up. ...more | |

"I really enjoyed this creature feature! It's sci-fi horror with lots of carnage and a cast of great characters you cannot help but root for. It starts very mysteriously, as three scientists who're being hunted, find temporary shelter in a diner deep "
