Reviews

  • An Alan Bennett-like enjoyment of domestic trivia in Fowler's work... provides a foil for the horror and an unexpected seam of humour.

  • A unique voice

    The Dark Side

  • [Christopher Fowler is] a great guide to the dark side.

    Time Out

  • One of the hippest and sharpest horror writers around.
