The Gulp: Five Tales of Horror

“Alan Baxter is an accomplished storyteller who ably evokes magic and menace.”

– Laird Barron, author of Swift to Chase

“Baxter delivers the horror goods.”

– Paul Tremblay, author of The Cabin at the End of the World

“Step into the ring with Alan Baxter, I dare you. He writes with the grace, precision, and swift brutality of a prizefighter.”

– Christopher Golden, NYT bestselling author of Ararat and The Pandora Room

“Alan Baxter’s fiction is dark, disturbing, hard-hitting and heart-breakingly honest. He reflects on worlds known and unknown with compassion, and demonstrates an almost second-sight into human behaviour.”

– Kaaron Warren, Shirley Jackson Award-winner and author of The Grief Hole

“…if Stephen King and Jim Butcher ever had a love child then it would be Alan Baxter.”

– Smash Dragons

“Baxter draws you along a knife’s edge of tension from the first page to the last, leaving your heart thumping and sweat on your brow.”

– Midwest Book Review
