Read This: After the People Lights Have Gone Off
6September 3, 2014 by Laird
Stephen Graham Jones is a hell of a writer; a heavyweight in the horror/dark fantasy ranks. If you haven’t run across him before, all I can say is that he’s an excellent stylist, on par with Brian Evenson, Aimee Bender, and Dan Chaon, but with a real love for pulp fantasy. Jones can be a heavy read–he tackles the darkest of the dark, but without undue navel-gazing. An SGJ tale is always one with a powerful undercurrent. His latest collection, After the People Lights Have Gone Off, is due out any minute.

Gonna get it!
You’ll be happy you did. 😉
I enjoy well written dark pulp. So based on your recommendation , I pre-ordered Mr. Jones’ latest work.
Jones has range. The Ones That Got Away is also terrific.
Thanks for the support, Laird. We’re really happy how this came out. Long time fan of SGJ, but the cover art, 15 original illustrations, and two original stories really added to this fantastic collection, I think. Much appreciation.
No problem.
