Book Review – The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires

Cover image for The Southern Book Club's guide to slaying vampires : a novel / Grady Hendrix.

By Grady Hendrix.

A true crime – obsessed, bored housewife realises her neighbour is a vampire preying on local children. When the police won’t do anything she recruits her friends from book club to take the monster down. This book is magnificent – it’s like Buffy Summer’s mum was the vampire slayer. And it even captures all the campy horror and gore of 80s and 90s vampire movies.

Book Review – A Lush and Seething Hell: Two Tales of Cosmic Horror

Cover image for A lush and seething hell : two tales of cosmic horror / John Hornor Jacobs.

By John Horner Jacobs.

Dark, beautiful and maddening, these two tales explore the psychological horror of trying to uncover secrets that were buried for good reason. One story transports you to the depths of the dark gothic American South, the other plays out amidst a backdrop of corruption and war across Spain and South America. Lovecraft gets a run for his money!
