Another "only Matt Ruff could do it" productionLovecraft Country takes the unlikeliest of premises and spins it into a funny, fast, exciting, and affecting read -- Neal Stephenson, author of Snow Crash and Cryptonomicon
At every turn, Ruff has great fun pitting mid-twentieth-century horror and sci-fi clichés against the banal and ever present bigotry of the era. * New York Times Book Review *
A brilliantly conceived story brilliantly executed -- Christopher Moore, author of Lamb and A Dirty Job
Lovecraft Country doesn't just race along, it tears, demanding that you keep turning its pages without interruption -- Cory Doctorow, author of Little Brother
