Gone to the Dogs by Mark Towse

5.0

I first came across Towse thanks to his novella “Nana.” Since then, I’ve read everything he’s written and been absolutely floored by his work; “Gone To The Dogs,” is no exception. Towse is a master of blending heart, humor and horror in a way that constantly keeps you engaged as a reader.

“Gone To The Dogs,” starts on a day like any other in a town that has seen better days. When the sky turns red, our cast of characters quickly find that nothing could have prepared them for the chaos that is unfolding around them. My favorite part of this story is that the main vehicle for the plot lies within the characters themselves. Through getting to know them, we learn the true nature of the evil that’s befallen them and what they must do to overcome. Towse is also a master of pace, expertly keeping your heart pumping with nail biting and action packed scenes of horror, while maintaining a sense levity and emotional connection to the characters. “Gone To The Dogs,” is a winner and I highly recommend it. Woof!
