A wonderful new review of The Lure of Devouring Light just appeared, this one by Shane Douglas Keane and posted on his Shotgun Logic blog. It begins:

“With stories published in a diverse array of publications such as Apex and Black Static and anthologies like The Grimscribe’s Puppets and The Children of Old Leech, plus a cornucopia of work forthcoming, Michael Griffin has been garnering some impressive accolades from such high profile voices as S. P. Miskowski, Michael Cisco, and the reigning king of literary weird fiction, Laird Barron. So it’s no surprise to see that his debut collection, The Lure of Devouring Light serves as a showcase of some of the finest short horror fiction to be published in recent years.”

Book Review: The Lure of Devouring Light by Michael Griffin

My sincere thanks to Shane for the detailed and perceptive review. Shane and I also recently completed a lengthy interview, which should be posted soon, though my understanding is that the interview will be posted not at Shane’s own blog but at another prominent horror-focused web site. I should be able to share a link to that soon.
