The Talosite

Praise for The Talosite

"...gruesome and gothic ... a dark, fascinating premise will draw readers in..."

-Publishers Weekly

"Rebecca Campbell's novella The Talosite is further proof she is a supremely gifted writer. She's invented a strange, dark, compelling, and poignant alternative world in which the dead can be resurrected. An absolute must read!"

-   Paula Guran, Year's Best Dark Fantasy & Horror

"An intricate false history of World War 1, an emotional and stylish reimagining of Frankenstein and centuries of reanimation legends, The Talosite fixedly explores the unfathomability of both love and mass death."

-   Naben Ruthnum, Author of Helpmeet, and A Hero of Our Time.

"Campbell captures the perfect voice in this deftly-crafted alternate history that explores both wonders and horrors and the blurred space where the two bleed into one. A tale of science and war that is at once fantastical and frightening for how plausible it feels. A meticulously-built alternate history set against the backdrop of WWI, weaving in dark and fantastic elements that bring to mind the classic science fictional horror of Mary Shelley. Classic and timeless."

- A.C. Wise, Author of Wendy, Darling, and The Ghost Sequences.

Praise for The Paradise Engine

"[a] mystifying story that melds the Vaudeville era of Vancouver history with contemporary Vancouver. "

~ BC Bookworld

"Rebecca Campbell brings intelligence and mystery to this strange indie tale. "

~ Thomas Hodd, Telegraph-Journal

"What The Paradise Engine invites us to consider is the form, the meaning, and the price of going on. Immortality, the story warns us, always demands a sacrifice. "

~ Jennifer Quist, The Rusty Toque
