PRAISE FOR PETER STRAUB:
‘Straub is a master at creating fear out of everyday life.’
SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
‘No one is better than Straub at having whole communities rocked by the forces of wickedness.’
OBSERVER
PRAISE FOR IN THE NIGHT ROOM:
‘Master of the macabre Straub sits fear on your shoulder in a tale which is blacker than the night.’ NORTHERN ECHO
‘Unforgettable’ GUARDIAN
PRAISE FOR LOST BOY LOST GIRL:
'Lost Boy Lost Girl is intense and yet measured; serious and melancholy at times, but also humorous. Straub's prose has a tart clarity that allows him to delineate the muddiness of life with great economy and richness. He has a superb ear for dialogue, both spoken and silent. He is adept, too, with ambiguity; the emotional blur of the real world, of our tentative and ambivalent responses to each other and the things we do. These qualities create an atmosphere that lingers like the novel's own ghost, and Straub achieves this invisibly, in the background. He doesn't insist you notice how intelligent and subtle the novel is, and you don't: you merely appreciate how good a time you're having, and that you don't want it to stop.' Michael Marshall, GUARDIAN
'Stephen King's mate and co-author puts the monster master into the shade. This'll have you anxiously contemplating the shadows' MIRROR
'Mr Straub's latest is an unusually taut, dynamic, spooky display of horror expertise, and its story is deftly told.' NEW YORK TIMES
No. 1 bestselling author of Black House
