DICONO DI STEVE VERNON “Questo genere ha bisogno di sangue nuovo e Steve Vernon è una vera trasfusione.” - Edward Lee, autore di FLESH GOTHIC e CITY INFERNAL “Steve Vernon è una specie di anomalia nel mondo della letteratura horror. È una delle nuove voci più fresche del genere, sebbene la sua carriera sia in piedi da vent’anni. Scrivendo con una rara padronanza e sicurezza, Steve Vernon può guidare i suoi lettori attraverso un’intera gamma di emozioni, dal terrore alla pietà, dalla repulsione alle risate.” - Cemetery Dance “Dotato di un bizzarro senso dell’umorismo, un enorme tasso di originalità, un fiuto per il rischio e una forte padronanza della caratterizzazione, Steve ha sicuramente le giuste capacità.” - Dark Discoveries “Steve Vernon è nato per scrivere. È un vero affare e siamo fortunati ad averlo.” - Richard Chizmar E anche mia madre pensa che io sia abbastanza figo.
