"With its utterly imaginative freedom and instinct for narrative transformation, this unsettling and consistently surprising novel reads like a happy combination of Neil Gaiman and Kelly Link. Savory deserves to make a great impression on both our highly mutable genre and the reading public."
—Peter Straub
"In and Down is a novel of many antecedents but no precedents. The reader's thoughts turn to Thomas Tryon's The Other, Peter Straub's Ghost Story, and Clive Barker's Weaveworld, even as the reader's feelings are hurtled into dark and delectable places they have never been before."
—James Morrow
"A vision of psychological disquiet that leads us into depths of nightmare terror and ultimate revelation. An uncanny and disturbing work by a stylish and intelligent writer. File under Original and Startling."
—Ramsey Campbell
"A beautifully crafted, sophisticated first novel by an ascendant new writer with near-eldritch ability to see the truly gothic in the lives of children and families. Brett Savory's In and Down is one of the most stunning and original Canadian literary debuts of the year."
—Michael Rowe
"Brett Alexander Savory’s taut first novel puts every boy’s horror of clowns, dead dogs, and missing mothers into the deep end. You need to read it and see what floats to the top."
—Hal Niedzviecki
In 2006, Necro Publications released my horror-comedy novel The Distance Travelled. August 2007 will see the release of my first short story collection, No Further Messages, through Delirium Books. In September, my dark literary novel In and Down was released through Brindle & Glass Publishing.
In the works are three more novels, and a dark comic book series with artist Homeros Gilani.
When I'm not writing, reading, or editing, I play drums for the hard rock band Diablo Red, whose third album, Lower the Troll, was released in mid-2007.
Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my new erotic horror novel THE 13TH is now in stores everywhere! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride!
There's even a website devoted just to the book, with an interactive map of the places and characters at www.the13th-horror.com.
Edward Lee called THE 13TH "A double-barreled shotgun blast of macabre entertainment -- an expert amalgamation of grotesquerie, eroticism, mystery, and pitch-black occult horror that no fan of the genre can miss."
And Gary A. Braunbeck said, "John Everson's The 13th is the first out-and-out horror novel in a long while to actually scare the **** out of me while reading it. It's stylish, extremely well-written, filled with richly-drawn characterizations, and boasts a labyrinthine plot worthy of Umberto Eco. Trust me -- this one will fry your nerves and break your heart."
Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:
“SACRIFICE is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend SACRIFICE.” —Famous Monsters of Filmland
“John Everson manages in SACRIFICE to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It’s rather an amazing feat.” –Hell Notes
I've stepped a little outside my normal "horror writer" persona this week :-) To celebrate the season, I've created a Holiday Madness page, with links to a free Christmas short fantasy story ("Christmas, The Hard Way"), a rock 'n' roll holiday song I wrote and recorded a few years ago ("Show Me Christmas"), holiday wallpaper for your computer and more. You can hear the song and follow the link from my MySpace page, or just click the banner below. Darkest Holidays to you!
