All Your Friends are Here

"Explores the unnerving and grotesque with glee. Shaw's style suits the stories like a glove."

•Publishers Weekly

"Unforgettable, ominous, and provocative. Shaw is a voice to watch in Weird fiction."

•Library Journal, starred review

"A surreal reading experience, humorous and creepy in equal measure. An exciting new voice [that] delivers a fresh take on horror and will appeal to fans of T. Kingfisher, Grady Hendrix, and Jason Pargin."

•Booklist

Your new favorite assortment of New Weird Lit stories about car-vampires; fascist deer; memory-devouring tree gods; and the torment matrix; from Wonderland Award-winning author M.Shaw (One Hand to Hold, One Hand to Carve).

At last we can confirm what you've always dreamed of: All your friends are here!

Why leave your apartment ever again? All your friends are here.

Why go to outer space? All your friends are here.

Why grow, or dream? Why take that vacation you've been saving up for? Why set yourself free?

All your friends are here.

Contains a novelette written especially for this collection, Ready Player (n+1).

"Dark elegies of loneliness and dissolution set in a world left dangling at the end of history. As an enquirer into the question of what it means to be human, M. Shaw is second to none."

•Nadia Bulkin, She Said Destroy

"Wonderfully Weird, bizarro horror with a deeply resonant, poetic sensibility and an itch-under-your-skin vibe that just won't quit." 

•Michael Allen Rose, Jurassichrist 

"There is not a story in this collection that doesn't hit like a heroic dose of acid straight to your cerebellum. Unhinged in the best possible way."

•Danger Slater, Starlet and House of Rot
