PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Jonathan Janz grew up between a dark forest and a graveyard, which explains everything. Brian Keene named his debut novel The Sorrows the best horror novel of 2012. The Library Journal deemed his follow-up, House of Skin, reminiscent of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House and Peter Straub's Ghost Story. His novel Children of the Dark received a starred review in Booklist and was chosen by their board as one of the Top Ten Horror Books of the Year (August 2015-September 2016). Children of the Dark will soon be translated into German and has been championed by the Library Journal, the School Library Journal, and Cemetery Dance. In early 2017, his novel Exorcist Falls was released to critical acclaim. Since then Jonathan's work has been lauded by writers like Jack Ketchum, Edward Lee, Tim Waggoner, Bryan Smith, and Ronald Kelly. Novels like The Nightmare Girl, Wolf Land, Savage Species, and Dust Devils prompted Thunderstorm Books to sign Jonathan to an eleven-book deal and to give him his own imprint, Jonathan Janz's Shadow Side. Jonathan's primary interests are his wonderful wife and his three amazing children, and though he realizes that every author's wife and children are wonderful and amazing, in this case the cliche happens to be true.

If you're looking for an intelligent, entertaining, and ultimately satisfying read, you won't find better than Jonathan Janz, and if you haven't read any of his books, THE NIGHTMARE GIRL is a damn good place to start. Smart money says you'll be hunting down the rest of his books shortly after finishing this one. -- Ink Fest I can't give enough praise for this one. It gets my unconditional recommendation. -- Frank Michaels Errington All of Jonathan Janz's novels are well-written chillers. Currently, this one tops the list. -- New York Journal of Books The Nightmare Girl is a well rounded horror which doesn't fail to entertain. Much like the other novels by Jonathan Janz I've read, I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. -- Just a Guy Who Likes to Read He is by far my favourite horror author, damn this man knows how to write! It is like he knows what fears you have and he completely plays to his strengths by writing them and twisting it all around on you. -- ZooLoo's Book Diary Thank you, Jonathan Janz, for not teasing us but keeping us there on land and rewarding our eager eyes with what we really want. -- Cemetery Dance Janz is more interested here in the human characters, their relationships and motivations, and the occasional strange occurrences, setting up plenty of questions and mysteries as he methodically builds tension and paranoia along the way. -- High fever Books
