    “While some may find scholar S.T. Joshi's claim in his introduction that Pulver “can take his place with that of the masters of our genre” (including Poe and Lovecraft) a trifle hyperbolic, all will agree that Pulver is a writer to watch. (Dec.)” – Publisher’s Weekly

    “Whatever your expectations may be, check them at the door. Pulver has a truly unique style for the horror genre, and this collection of short stories is a perfect vehicle for this sort of style . . . Pulver is an original.” -  Rick Kleffel’s The Agony Column

    "Some writers one admirers and others make one want to do as they do, or try. For me, Joe Pulver is of the latter type. His imagination is so vile so much of the time that it makes me giggle with amazement. And the prose so deadly visionary. I'm grateful that the pieces in this collection are those of a fellow horror writer who has raised the ante on what it means to be such a creature." - Thomas Ligotti

    Hi,

    Thanks for the req!

    My new novel, 'Scars Beneath The Skin' is out now, available on Amazon and all other usual online outlets.

    It's a dark modern love story about the traumatised victim of a terrorist bomb (Karl Dresner, an East Berliner) and a fiery Italian woman, Lucia Cavallieri, who wants to turn his life around.

    More info at www.ajduggan.co.uk including excerpts and a BBC radio interview.

    Latest news is that the publisher, Flambard Press, is putting the novel forward for the Costa Book Awards, the Guardian First Book Award and the Le Prince Maurice Prize

    Cheers,
    Andy
