New Treasures: The Lure of Devouring Light by Michael Griffin
Ross E. Lockhart’s Word Horde press has done some darned impressive horror volumes. Just counting the ones we’ve covered recently:
The Fisherman by John Langan
Mr. Suicide, Nicole Cushing
Cthulhu Fhtagn!, edited by Ross E. Lockhart
Vermilion by Molly Tanzer
The Children of Old Leech, edited by Ross E. Lockhart and Justin Steele
Yeah, that’s a pretty good list. A list like that wins you some serious credibility. So when Word Horde offers us an intriguing new debut collection from someone I’ve never heard of, I think it behooves us to pay attention. Michael Griffin’s The Lure of Devouring Light has been called “A solid outing from a rising star in horror and dark fantasy” by Publishers Weekly, and Hellnotes says “It doesn’t get more recommended than this.”
The Lure of Devouring Light was published by Word Horde on April 30, 2016. It is 336 pages, priced at $16.99 in trade paperback and $6.99 for the digital version. The cover art is by Jarek Kubicki. Read more at the Word Horde website.
