The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones
5.0
**Thank you so much to S&S/Saga Press, SGJ, and NetGalley for this ARC of The Buffalo Hunter Hunter in return for my honest review. Pub Date: March 18th, 2025**
Set in the American west, 1912- this historical fiction horror follows the detailed life confessions of a Blackfeet named Good Stab. His confessions were orated to a Lutheran pastor, who then transcribed them in his personal diary. The diary is then found within a wall in present day.
.
This 448 page novel is EVERYTHING I look for in a vampire novel! Woven together expertly using Indigenous Mythology and the blood steeped history of the American west, SGJ has written a true vampire masterpiece. Although I don't like to compare novels- this story reminds me of Anne Rice's 'Interview with the Vampire'. BHH has all the hallmarks of what I expect from a vampire novel- living silently (and painfully) through multiple centuries, exacting revenge for a misdeed exacted upon the vampire in times past, and the best part-bloody scenes. I absolutely loved SGJ's refreshing new take on the way blood affects vampires- it was truly unique!
.
If you love vampire novels, I highly recommend picking this one up!
