A Good Read from Joe Hill


I want to recommend Joe Hill’s novel NOS4A2. It’s a magical blend of supernatural and psychological horror, reminiscent of Stephen King’s Firestarter and The Dead Zone. I won’t spoil the plot for you, but there is a librarian dear to my heart, a young girl who becomes a children’s author, and the nastiest, most evil old man in horror literature. The writing is wonderful, the imagery is splendid, and the hypnotic repetition of songs and phrases mesmerizing. Great horror writing. Hell, it just plain good writing.
