Praise for Alan Baxter:
"Manifest Recall grabs you by the scruff of the neck from word one and doesn't let go. It's fast paced, bad people doing bad things to other bad people. I gobbled it down in two nights. You should, too. Highly recommended " - John F.D. Taff, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of The End in All Beginnings
"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
"Alan Baxter is an accomplished storyteller who ably evokes magic and menace." - Laird Barron, author of Swift to Chase
"Alan's work is reminiscent of that of Clive Barker and Jim C. Hines, but with a unique flavour all of its own." - Angela Slatter, World Fantasy, British Fantasy and Aurealis Award winner
Proudly presented by Grey Matter Press, the multiple Bram Stoker Award-nominated independent publisher.
