Satan Whispers "Evil" with The Devil's Breath

See, I told you!

All kidding aside, this is a quick post as I've begun reading a vintage '80s horror saga, a multi-volume series by an unfortunately neglected, and now late, Southern author.... Human forces war against nature's ravages, a dead woman's legacy, and an awesome, blood-curdling dismemberment. That's just the tagline! Hot damn.

  1. Yay! Blackwater; I knew it when I read the tagline. I also knew he was Southern. I read that series years ago. Definitely worth it.

  2. I'm sure I won't be the only to look at the scan of EVIL's cover and say "Why the hell is Riff Raff writing a book about the Bates house?"

  3. To be fair, Jose, that book would probably be better than the real one.

  4. I'm going to have to track down a copy of Evil.

  5. Just discovered your blog today and read (among many others) your review of McDowell's The Elementals. Looking forward to your post on his epic six part southern Gothic/horror saga.
