King of Hell

“Golden combines quiet, dark, subtle mood with Super-Giant monster action. â¯Sort of M.R. James meets Godzilla!” 

--Mike Mignola, creator of Hellboy

“Christopher Golden is one of the most hard-working, smartest, and most talented writers of his generation, and his books are so good and so involving that they really ought to sell in huge numbers. â¯Everything he writes glows with imagination.” 

--Peter Straub

“Some of my editor friends tell me that horror fiction is finally starting to make a  
comeback after the catastrophic boom and bust in the 1980s. If that's true, writers like Christopher Golden are a big part of the reason.” 

--George R. R. Martin

“Golden’s 1994 book is the template for a score of books that have been published in the years since its publication. â¯Many of those books have been bestsellers. â¯Reading Of Saints and Shadows again after so long, I was amazed to realize how many elements now familiar in the vampire and thriller genres appeared in Saints first. â¯Golden’s imagination and expert plotting wove these elements into a startlingly original book, as exciting to read now as it was when it first appeared on the rack.⯠Of Saints and Shadows should be part of every genre writer’s library.” 

--Charlaine Harris
