Matthew V. Brockmeyer
Award-winning novelist and short story writer
Brockmeyer's effortlessly stylistic and literary prose completely and utterly mesmerizes you . . . This is a home run and [horror] fans will want to keep Brockmeyer's name on their list of ones to watch.
Like the blood-soaked, LSD-fueled love child of Maurice Sendak and H.P. Lovecraft, Matthew Brockmeyer's Nest of Salt does not shy away from where the wild things are. It's a mad circus, a spiked ambrosia, a frenzied cacophony of heavy metal, demented Christmas carols, and chants to summon cosmic horrors in the dark.
