Thrill Me by Benjamin Percy

Thrill Me by Benjamin Percy

In his first book of nonfiction, Benjamin Percy challenges the notion that literary and genre fiction are mutually exclusive. In fifteen essays on the craft of fiction, Percy looks to disparate sources to discover how contemporary writers engage issues of plot, suspense, momentum and the speculative, as well as character, setting and dialogue. An urgent and entertaining missive on craft, Thrill Me brims with Percy's distinctive blend of anecdotes, advice and close reading, all in the service of one dictum: Thrill the reader.

Benjamin Percy has received a Whiting Award, a Plimpton Prize, two Pushcart Awards, and a National Endowment for the Arts grant, among other honors. He is the author of The Dead Lands, Red Moon, and The Wilding, as well as three story collections and Thrill Me, an essay collection. He also contributes to DC Comics' Green Arrow and Teen Titans series.
