Review:
Nick Antosca's Midnight Picnic is a thrilling follow-up to his contemplative debut, Fires. His imagination makes an astonishing show in this macabre, bizarre and witty story of ghosts and revenge. Impossible to put down until the extremely satisfying end, Midnight Picnic conjures up the mounting tension of the finest Bradbury story. --Jami Attenberg, author of The Kept Man
If there's a real Hell out there in the American heartland, and real ghosts, I suspect Nick Antosca has seen them. Midnight Picnic reinvents the ghost story for our unsettled times--it's a riveting and terrifying 21st Century Book of the Dead that's one of the most frightening novels I've read in years. --Elizabeth Hand, author of Generation Loss, Mortal Love and Winterlong
