I love Cormac McCarthy... I read ‘The Passenger,’ and I thought, this guy is like 87, 88 years old, and he’s as good as he ever was. Just blew me away... It made such an impression that I wrote this story called ‘The Dreamers’ that’s going to be in a new book.

SMALL MERCIES rocks.

If Taylor Sheridan made a film out of Cormac McCarthy’s BLOOD MERIDIAN, I’d see that fucker six times.

CEMETERY ROAD, by Greg Iles: Pure reading pleasure. This guy knows the deep south as well or better than any other novelist.

Want a book that will scare the daylights out of you this weekend? ROVERS, by Richard Lange. The best vampire novel I've read since LET THE RIGHT ONE IN.

As the Ukrainian situation worsens, I keep thinking about Ken Follett's most recent novel, NEVER. This is exactly Follett's doomsday scenario: slow but steady escalation with no off-ramp.

Stephen King

From THE PASSENGER, by Cormac McCarthy: Giraffe walks into a bar and says, “The highballs are on me.”

Stephen King

Firmly written and well executed … Because Ng’s storytelling is so calm—serene, almost—the occasional explosions of violence are authentically horrifying … the climax deals with the power of words, the power of stories and the persistence of memory.
