Alectryomancer and Other Weird Tales by Christopher Slatsky, Jordan Krall

4.0

I'm new to this author but I've already picked up his next story collection. This was very good, very atmospheric, and very tense in a way that gave me visceral chills. Plus, he's just a very effective and smart horror writer combining philosophy, archaeology, and myth to bring the most out of a story. Definitely left me impressed.

My favorites were "No One is Sleeping in this World," "Making Snakes," "The Ocean is Eating Our Graves," "This Fragmented Body," "Tellurian Facade," "A Plague of Naked Movie Stars," and "Alectryomancer."
