Описание: "Rich characters and a love of unique twists top off a captivating and sometimes gruesome collection of nightmares" from the award-winning author of Volk (Corey Redekop, author of Husk). Winner of the Black Quill Reader's Choice Award, Monstrous Affections heralded the appearance of a thrilling new writer on the horror scene, praised by the National Post as "a worthy heir to the mantle of Stephen King." David Nickle's debut collection features "13 terrifying tales of rural settings, complex and reticent characters and unexpected twists that question the fundamentals of reality. All are delivered with a certain grace, creating a sparse yet poetic tour of the horrors that exist just out of sight. Standout stories include 'Janie and the Wind, ' where a battered, abandoned woman does what she needs to survive; 'Other People's Kids, ' a disturbing examination of the razor-thin moment dividing childhood from maturity and the hand holding that razor; and 'The Pit Heads, ' a phenomenal story about the cold remnants of a Canadian mining town and the true cost of beauty. This ambitious collection firmly establishes Nickle as a writer to watch" (Publishers Weekly, starred review). "Brilliant . . . You'd think that you were reading a book full of what you had always expected a horror story to be, but Nickle takes a left turn and blindsides you with tales that are not of the norm, but are all the more horrific because of the surprise twists, darkness and raw emotion." --January Magazine, "Best Books of 2009" "David Nickle writes 'em damned weird and damned good and damned dark. He is bourbon-rough, poetic and vivid. Don't miss this one." --Cory Doctorow, New York Times-bestselling author

Описание: This debut horror novel by the author of acclaimed short story collection Monstrous Affections "establishes him as a worthy heir to the mantle of Stephen King" (National Post). Set in 1911, Eutopia "mixes utopian vision, rustic Americana, and pure creepiness. .
. . Nickle blends Little House on the Prairie with distillates of Rosemary's Baby and The X-Files to create a chilling survival-of-the-fittest story" (Publishers Weekly).
Situated on the edge of the woods and mountains of northern Idaho, the tiny settlement of Eliada is an industrialist's attempt to create heaven on earth. But its secrets are soon to be unveiled, as Jason Thistledown, the sole survivor of a mysterious plague in Montana, and Andrew Waggoner, a black doctor nearly lynched by the KKK, delve beneath the facade of the utopian mill town. What they discover is science warped by ideology-and an unearthly monster that preys on the faith of its own true believers .
. . "A story of piano-wire suspense, grotesque horrors, and, above all, visceral insight into the race politics of American horror, and how they are bound up with the American project itself." -Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing Praise for David Nickle "His stories are dark, wildly imaginative, and deeply compassionate-even when they're laced with righteous anger." -Nathan Ballingrud, author of Wounds "David Nickle is Canada's answer to Stephen King.
His writing charms even as it slices like a blade between the ribs: sharp, subtle, and never less than devastating." -Helen Marshall, author of Gifts for the One Who Comes After

a glorious, chaotic delight" from the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Volk (Peter Watts, author of Blindsight). Post-Cold War, a group of Russians bred from childhood to be psychic spies are called from around the globe to achieve their true purpose: world domination. But some of them have flourished in the lives they have carved out for themselves-often in nefarious ways-and they will not give up their freedom without a fight, even as a new generation of telepathic children, the beautiful dreamers, are coming into power .
. . In Rasputin's Bastards, David Nickle-the acclaimed author of Eutopia, Monstrous Affections, and Volk-offers readers "an enormous tale, bewilderingly complex, but with lots of twists and turns that reward close attention.
It is grotesque, violent, and exciting, with a supernatural tinge that is his hallmark" (Cory Doctorow, BoingBoing). "This novel is supernatural eeriness at its best, with intriguing characters, no clear heroes, and a dark passion at its heart. Horror aficionados and fans of Stephen King's larger novels should appreciate this macabre look at the aftermath of the Cold War." -Library Journal "Stiffly compelling.
Once you're done, there's no question: the hours spent enfolded in Nickle's imagination are well spent. You won't ever feel the desire to ask for them back." -January Magazine "A journey from the depths of the sea, the heart of Mother Russia, to the darkest corners of the soul." -K. E.

Описание: Stories of the mysterious and macabre from "Canada's answer to Stephen King" (Helen Marshall, author of Gifts for the One Who Comes After). In this follow-up to his award-winning debut collection, Monstrous Affections, David Nickle stretches the boundaries of horror into a sphere of "uncertainty, of helplessness, of traditions and change. .
. . The stories are sui generis in presentation, veering from the discombobulating nightmare that is 'Basements' to the squid-laden eco-satire 'Wylde's Kingdom' to the sci-fi love of 'Love Means Forever.' When it comes to this book, only two things are certain; the stories never travel where you expect, and David Nickle is a monumental talent" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
"Don't make the mistake of overlooking the talent based on preconceptions of what horror might be-read one of these stories and see if you aren't hooked. . .
. Believe the hype. David Nickle is very good." -The Globe and Mail "Anyone even vaguely interested in horror or weird fiction owes it to themselves to give David Nickle a look, and Knife Fight and Other Struggles is a great place to start." -The Winnipeg Free Press "Knife Fight and Other Struggles is a remarkable collection that drops some hi-fidelity weirdness on the scene.
Nickle's prose has gorgeous lines of symmetry and a steel spine." -Laird Barron, Shirley Jackson Award-winning author "Dynamic imagination, masterful writing of both the everyday and the nightmare, characters that breathe, and a dark sense of humor make [Knife Fight and Other Struggles] a keeper." -Jeffrey Ford, World Fantasy Award-winning author

A violent poltergeist that tore a murderous path through her family, it wasn't imaginary-and it definitely wasn't a friend. Now Ann is all grown up-and so is the Insect.

Soon, Ann will find herself in a perverse battle against a group of men who want to wrest control of the Insect from her. What they don't know is, if you play with the Insect, you're sure to get stung . .
. "Few writers do psychosexual horror as well as Toronto's David Nickle, and with The 'Geisters he's back with another tale of voluptuous terror and the supernatural." -Toronto Star "This is a book that buzzes in your ears, climbs your crawling skin with multiple barbed feet, feeling with exquisitely sensitive antennae for the next new and terrible revelation." -The National Post "[The 'Geisters] doesn't just explore the attractiveness of terror-it embodies it in a narrative that demands (excites even as it repels) your attention. It's a(nother) strong novel by one of the best, most interesting horror writers working today." -Bookgasm
