Strange Weather
by Joe Hill
What it is: Four short novels by a master horror writer explore classic literary themes through the darkness of the supernatural.
Reviewers say: Hill is back with a collection of four short novels that each showcases his talent for mining modern lives for fear. As he notes in the collection's afterword, tales of horror and fantasy thrive at a shorter length, and readers will be vigorously nodding their heads in agreement. These novellas present a foreboding and unsettling view of our world and contain complex and complicated casts of diverse characters. Hill is not only maturing as a writer of relevantly chilling tales but he is also emerging as a distinct voice for our complicated times.--Spratford, Becky Copyright 2017 Booklist
