Taff's The Fearing is a powerful epic-the large scope of the work, the large cast of characters, and a powerful and interesting main theme. A very enjoyable trip into the land of feardom!" - Robert R. McCammon, author of Swan Song and Boy's Life"The Fearing isn't only John F.D. Taff's best book to date, it's the kind you put on the shelf reserved for the ones that really did something to you, emotionally, intellectually, physically. A modern master at play.." - Josh Malerman, Bram Stoker Award(R)-nominated author of the New York Times bestselling Bird Box"With The Fearing, John F.D. Taff has written a book that calls to mind the great horror-disaster novels of the 1980's: The Stand, Swan Song, War Day. Fast-paced, inventive, compelling, this novel grabs hold of you and does not release its grip until you have arrived, shaken and sweaty-palmed, at its end." - John Langan, Bram Stoker Award(R)-winning author of Sefira and Other Betrayals"The Fearing is a complex, sprawling novel of the apocalypse. It explores our worst fears and our best strengths, and asks some uncomfortable questions. Taff masterfully blends moments of human intimacy with epic, heart-stopping action and terror in a powerful book that will stand out for a long time. A new bar has been set for fear." - Alan Baxter, award-winning author of Served Cold and Devouring Dark"Of the current breed of authors riding the wave of digital liberation, John Taff is a standout talent. Literary, affecting, chilling, and indicative of that old-school mentality meets new-school daring." - Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award(R)-winning author of The Turtle Boy, Kin and Jack & Jill"John F. D. Taff has rapidly become one of my favorite writers in the horror genre. His horror is grounded in our day-to-day lives, in our families, our work, our most private thoughts. His stories vibrate with emotion and life and his prose is cathartic, deeply satisfying, like popping the bubbles in bubble wrap." - Ray Garton, Grand Master of Horror and author of Live Girls and RavenousProudly presented by Grey Matter Press, the multiple Bram Stoker Award-nominated independent publisher.Grey Matter Press: Where Dark Thoughts Thrive
