„We Are All Completely Fine“ von Daryl Gregory hat eine interessante Entstehungsgeschichte. Es erschien 2014, ein Jahr, bevor Gregory den lovecraftischen Horror-SciFi-Fantasy-Young Adult-Roman „Harrison Squared“ veröffentlichte. Diese Veröffentlichungsreihenfolge entspricht allerdings nicht der Reih...
Ein Buch über eine Selbsthilfegruppe für Menschen, die Opfer oder Zeugen übernatürlicher Phänomene geworden sind, ist Mal etwas anderes im Fantasy-/ Horrorregal. Ich gestehe, dass ich hier etwas eher humorvolles erwartet hatte, was allerdings nicht der Fall war. In We Are All Completely Fine (dt.: U...
My note on this is that it was recommended to me via Bookaneer's Review. So that only took me two years to get around to reading it, and I'm kicking myself. Hard. I'd review it, but seriously, just go read what she said. My review would just be superfluous over hers anyway :) Suffice to say, I j...
Dr. Jan Sayer is a psychologist who decides to put together a special therapy group composed of people who have been through things too strange for most to completely believe. Harrison is a retired monster hunter who is semi-famous as the main character of a book series about a boy who hunts monster...
So I'd been told to read this for a long time, and because I rebel from the suggestions of others, I responded every time with anything from "I'll check it out... eventually" to "Bite me, sucka." Another Lovecraft-esque recycled horror-fantasy. Lo, I am filled with a mighty scorn, et cetera. Then I ...
"We Are All Completely Fine" is a novella is about sole survivors of extreme traumas with a supernatural not-credible-to-the-authorities flavour, who are brought together by a psychiatrist to "work" in Group Therapy sessions. As time goes by, it becomes clear that the group has not been assembled ra...
This book is almost five stars for me. I think if it were longer, and had a bit more space to explore, it would be in my stack of favorite books. It's that good. The concept of a therapy group for survivors of supernatural traumas is equally as appealing as it is clever. It asks the question of what...
Harrison is the Monster Detective, a storybook hero. Now he’s in his mid-thirties and spends most of his time not sleeping. Stan became a minor celebrity after being partially eaten by cannibals. Barbara is haunted by the messages carved upon her bones. Greta may or may not be a mass-murdering arson...
In that I am filled with awe: this book is a thing of terror and compassion, of grotesque horror, and sublime beauty, all intertwined. During the darkest times, during the most horrific of acts, it's the small moments of kindness that peek out at us and shine through. Behind all that gore and pa...
This novella largely served to convince me that I need to read the rest of Daryl Gregory's stuff. This, like The Devil's Alphabet, is a fine, unique piece of work. The premise is novel and the execution is nearly flawless. He deftly handles a large cast of characters (for a novella) interacting in a...
