I enjoy the slow burn of Grant's storytelling. If you know anything of him, you know that he doesn't bludgeon you over the head with nonstop gore and action. He teases you with the horror, slowly building up into a final crescendo. I've been reading his Oxrun Station series in chronological order an...
My random book-picker program selected two Grant books back-to-back. I'm a little surprised, especially since both books were purchased on the same order, back in the spring. It's a little eerie and strange, which is really perfect when you think about the sort of fiction that Grant tends to write.A...
I think my random book generator understands that we're coming up on Halloween. Even after going outside of it for once to read Dark Harvest, the last two books it's picked have been horror novels. Given the season, it's hard to complain about it.The Nestling is set in the southwest, which is unusua...
Grant pulls out all the stops with this conclusion to his Millennium Quartet. He's been hinting at a big conclusion, with Casey Chisholm being the linchpin for the entire series, and sure enough, he brings us back into his circle. We see what's happened to him in the last few years, as well as what'...
Welcome to Las Vegas, right at the turn of the 20th Century. After surviving the random destruction of towns that led to a food shortage, the city is presented with the threat of disease, though it has yet to show any signs of the smallpox virus that has affected much of the world outside. Enter Tre...
I was a little disappointed that this is a whole separate story from Symphony, with only a brief reference in the first chapter to the events that took place in the first volume of the series. I was hoping it would be a more legitimate series, with the same core characters appearing in all the novel...
Symphony is the first in a quadrilogy of books featuring each of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, each set in a small, rural town in the United States. It's a nice effect; Grant creates a microcosm of society where the apocalypse begins, taking what would normally be an epic story and condensing...
I remember The World of Darkness. Being big into horror in the early 1990s made certain of that. I was never into it at all -- I didn't have the friends, time, or inclination for RPGs -- but since it was horror-related, and since some of the other authors I was reading at the time were writing novel...
When I first started down this road of reading all of Grant's horror fiction (just two months ago now), I had initially just wanted to read what other readers determined to be his best work. The Pet was one of the books that had the highest ratings and praise, so I've been looking forward to reading...
