Produktbeschreibung

Return to the world of Renfield County from the Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Edenville. Perfect for fans of Paul Tremblay and Eric LaRocca "You remember all the stories, right? Monsters and giants and kid-eaters and that guy in the tub? Of course you do..." There's something wrong in Renfield County. It's in the walls of the county's historic houses, in the water, in the soil. But far worse than that-it's embedded deep within everyone who lives here. From the detective desperate to avoid hurting his own family; to the man so consumed with feeling zen that he will pursue horrific, life-changing surgery to achieve it. From the townspeople taken by ancient, unknowable forces; to those who find themselves lost in the woods, pursued by the beasts who lurk within the trees. Yes, there's something very wrong in Renfield County-something that has been very wrong for a very long time. Something that is watching. Something that is hungry. From the mind of acclaimed author Sam Rebelein, return to the Bram Stoker Award-nominated world of Edenville in this interconnected series of short stories, and discover the true secrets of Renfield County.

Rezensionen

"Taken on its own, each tale is horror perfection, as dread seeps in slowly until it explodes, and readers are left in breathlessly horrifying awe...A stellar collection." - Library Journal (starred review)

"A grisly and inventive collection. Kudos to Sam Rebelein." - Priya Sharma, World Fantasy/British Fantasy/Shirley Jackson Award Winner

"In the Rebelverse, hauntings get under your skin. Like a sliver, burrowing. A sliver of bloodstained wood--one of many, spreading like a contagion. You didn't really want to leave Renfield County, did you? Good. Because it has so much more to give. This is the laugh at the funeral we all need right now." - Sarah Read, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Bone Weaver's Orchard and the Atropine Tree

"There are many campus horror novels, but I think Edenville gets an A for AAAAAAIIIIIII! Sam Rebelein should be awarded a Master's Degree in SCARY. A major new talent!" - R.L. Stine, author of Goosebumps and Fear Street

"Edenville marks a riveting debut that positions Rebelein as a noteworthy talent in the horror genre...an essential read for horror enthusiasts, especially fans of Grady Hendrix and Paul Tremblay." - Booklist

"[A]n entertainingly bonkers tale infused with so much unease and danger that it is literally dripping from Cam's eyes. It is a story that explores the cosmic and folk horror tropes to their furthest reaches while also providing a scathing critique of academia, especially MFA programs, all wrapped up in one wild ride of a read." - Library Journal on Edenville

"The mundane horrors of rural and academic living collide with pure cosmic weirdness in Sam Rebelein's Edenville. Not since Jason Pargin's John Dies at the End have I been so horrified and grossed out by a book, nor have I gleefully whispered 'what the fuck' so much while turning the pages. I could say more, but honestly, the less you know about this book, the better. A fantastic debut. Go Crows!" - Todd Keisling, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Devil's Creek and Cold, Black & Infinite

"Rebelein sprinkles his wild and unpredictable narrative with pop culture references and a gleeful smattering of profanity, setting his voice apart." - Publishers Weekly on Edenville
