About the Author:

Jack Ketchum is one of the most cutting-edge and well-respected names in the Horror genre today. His books have received rave reviews from prestigious, literary publications as well as peers, such as Stephen King who, on two separate occasions during his acceptance speech at the 2003 National Book Awards, urged audience members to expand their literary pursuits to include boundary challenging authors like Ketchum. He is a three-time Bram Stoker Award finalist and three-time Bram Stoker Award winner. His books have been published in Japanese, French, Russian, Greek, and Italian. Offspring was his seventh release with Dorchester.

From the Inside Flap:

Jack Ketchum's original novel of cannibalism in Maine, Off Season, was first met with a lot of controversy when it was originally released in 1980. However sales of over 250,000 mass market editions made this first time novelist a major force in the horror and suspense genres.
