Stephen Graham Jones is a master of his craft. He's essentially the only horror writer I'll read, because, yes, his stories are endlessly creepy and have me keeping the lights on after dark -- but his characters also carry so much depth and dimension. In this book, I was consistently unsure whether I liked Jade, and more importantly, whether I trusted her. But at every turn, I was rooting for her. I'm going straight to the second book in this series -- I can already tell I won't want to put this trilogy down.
