Not read them, so can't say. But based on the strength of 'Starve Acre' I'm DEFINITELY giving them a read.

The Vorrh by Bruce Catling is absolutely weird and filled with compelling atmospheric writing

I literally just finished reading this yesterday after seeing the movie the day before. I'd highly recommend watching the movie after reading the book. It's slightly different and tells the story a bit more liberally. Matt Smith and Galadriel are great in it

No way! :D Really looking forward to the movie. Feel like Matt Smith's a great choice, a really subtle actor.

Finally read Starve Acre last week, and it was really well done and I was able to borrow it from the public library, which is pretty amazing, since our library system is a bit short on horror. I loved it and have his newest book waiting to be consumed. Yum!

That’s brilliant! So glad you liked it, Grimalkin! Definitely going to read the rest, but going through Anne Rice’s ‘The Vampire Lestat’ first.
