Praise for Black Mouth"Brutal, packed with magic, and with an interesting cast of characters who are all outsiders, Black Mouth is creepy, violent, heartfelt horror fiction that has something for every kind of reader. It’s also a book that cements Malfi as one of the most exciting and consistent voices in contemporary horror." – Locus “The well-done cosmic horror and mix of mundane and magical scares make this a standout.” – Publishers Weekly"Malfi, like Stephen King and Stephen Graham Jones, tells horror stories that are anchored in the real world. His characters, like theirs, are ordinary people caught up in extraordinary events. He earns his screams and shudders honestly, through good writing and careful plotting: there are no B-movie jump scares here, just an increasing sense of dread that erupts into blood-chilling horror. Don't miss this one." -Booklist"Unsettling and, at times, genuinely frightening, it’s the best horror novel I’ve read in quite some time. Highly recommended." - Cemetery Dance "Stunningly good, with echoes of King, Bradbury, Straub, and McCammon, but somehow purely Malfi. Full of malevolence and dread, and peopled by truly compelling characters, the book locks in Malfi’s place as one of the best writers in the genre.”– Christopher Golden, 'New York Times' bestselling author of 'Road of BONES' and 'Ararat'"'Black Mouth' is good magic about dark magic: a powerful meeting between adulthood and childhood, the people we pretend to be and the people we have to be. Smart, character-driven horror."– Andrew Pyper, author of 'The Residence' and 'The Demonologist'"Malfi has established himself as one of the all-time great horror writers, and 'Black Mouth' shows him working at the peak of his dark powers. Equally terrifying and heartbreaking, 'Black Mouth' is a book filled with terror, ghosts, and murder, but also hauntings of the heart, and the soul. Riveting, bloody, and cosmic, this novel will tear you apart in all the best ways.” – Philip Fracassi, author of 'Beneath a Pale Sky'"From one of horror's best storytellers...If you’re looking for a good, unsettling, smart and well-written horror novel, Black Mouth should certainly be on your short list.
