Publisher summary :

Laird Barron has emerged as one of the strongest voices in modern horror and dark fantasy fiction, building on the eldritch tradition pioneered by writers such as H. P. Lovecraft, Peter Straub, and Thomas Ligotti.
His stories have garnered critical acclaim and been reprinted in numerous year’s best anthologies and nominated for multiple awards, including the Crawford, International Horror Guild, Shirley Jackson, Theodore Sturgeon, and World Fantasy Awards. His debut collection, The Imago Sequence and Other Stories, was the inaugural winner of the Shirley Jackson Award.
He returns with his second collection, Occultation.
Pitting ordinary men and women against a carnivorous, chaotic cosmos, Occultation’s nine tales of terror (two never before published) include the Theodore Sturgeon and Shirley Jackson Award-nominated story “The Forest” and Shirley Jackson Award nominee “The Lagerstatte.”
Occultation brings more of the spine-chillingly sublime cosmic horror Laird Barron’s fans have come to expect.

Review 01 excerpt :

“One of literature’s greatest enchantments is its timelessness. Finely-wrought stories allow us to see how humanity has remained changeless, or has evolved, or has devolved over the years. And while there is great merit in experiencing the Jazz Age as evoked by Fitzgerald, or the Russia of Tolstoy, there is a rarer pleasure to be had reading a book of its time. This is Occultation. Of course, like all writers, Laird Barron has his influences, both past and present. Nevertheless, he is writing the weird tales of *this age*. His fiction is sure to stand to the test of time, but like readers of Mary Shelley’s debut novel in 1818, or of Fritz Leiber’s contemporized supernatural Horror tales in the ’40s, would have seen, Laird’s work is something of the *now*. These stories crackle not only with the noble elements of the genre’s past masters, but with the spirit of the here-and-now of Horror, and the potential of what might come tomorrow.

The 21st Century has indeed seen a new Golden Age of the supernatural Horror story, and with Occultation Laird Barron has placed himself at its forefront.”

Review 02 Excerpt:

“The brain is a camera, and once it sees what it sees there’s no taking it back.” - the ‘The Forest’

“The quotation opening this post really says it all. I’m just in awe of Laird Barron’s power to get under my skin and to jolt me out of my comfort zone; frankly I thought that after Imago the act would be so difficult to follow that it couldn’t possibly be as good. Well, it is.
Occultation is an excellent companion to The Imago Sequence. There are so many elements at work here — isolation, trauma, survivor guilt, a new look at old ruins, the insignificance of humanity in a grander cosmic scheme, and more. The backdrop of the forest is absolutely perfect with its covering mists and darkness where anything is bound to jump out or worse…where things lurk just waiting to be stumbled upon.

Highly recommended — darkness is definitely not needed for the hair on the back of your neck to stand on end.”

P.S - Does anyone know if there is a audiobook recording of Laird Barron’s first collection “The Imago Sequence and Other Stories”?
