"Some writers one admirers and others make one want to do as they do, or try. For me, Joe Pulver is of the latter type. His imagination is so vile so much of the time that it makes me giggle with amazement. And the prose so deadly visionary. I'm grateful that the pieces in this collection are those of a fellow horror writer who has raised the ante on what it means to be such a creature." - Thomas Ligotti
". . . I'm gawping in amazement, shaken by Pulver's eviscerating vision. He wields language as a scalpel, a Thompson submachine gun, an axe . . . Joe Pulver calls down the fire. Joe Pulver's the Man. He's got the Power." - Laird Barron, author of Occultation and The Imago Sequence
His work has been highly praised By Ellen Datlow, Thomas Ligotti, and S.T. Joshi, and many others. "Publisher's Weekly", reveiwing Blood Will Have Its Season, called him a "writer to watch."
