"If I've read better horror writers than Jones, I've forgotten them. He's at the apex of his game. "After the People Lights Have Gone Off" is the kind of collection that lodges in your brain like a malignant grain of an evil dream. And it's just going to be there, forever."
--Laird Barron, author of "The Beautiful Thing That Awaits Us All"
"Stephen Graham Jones is a true master of the horror short story. Inventive, quirky, unexpected and masterful."
--Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of "Fall of Night" and "Bad Blood"
"Stephen Graham Jones is a great devourer of stories, chewing up horror novels and detective stories and weird fiction, ingesting literature of every type and pedigree, high and low and everything in between. His stories betray his encyclopedic knowledge of genre and of storytelling, but what makes
After the People Lights Have Gone Off unique is how Jones never rests among his influences, going beyond what other writers might dare to craft terrors and triumphs all his own."
