Just when you thought you’d read all the best that zombie fiction has to offer, along comes a jewel! I adored this book. The descriptions are phenomenal and horrific, plenty of jump scares, and it feels like a World War Z meets Fallout meets Castaway ...more

As a surfer and horror fan, I’ll read anything with salt water in it. So yeah—I’ve been through my fair share of ocean horror, both short stories and novels. Most of it leans on what works: sharks, pirates, giant man-eatin" Read more of this review »
All the Things You Cannot See by Desiree Horton
"It's quite refreshing to find an anthology of thalassophobic horror which avoids Lovecraftian tropes and overused monster attacks, and goes for atmosphere and emotional depth instead. "Thalassophobia" is a just a big word for the fear of deep water, " Read more of this review »

What a trip! I am still mulling over what I just read, and I suspect I will be for a while. I’ve read each author separately, and together it’s a perfect marriage of splatterpunk gross out, lore and world building, and well researched myth. The faces ...more
