Praise for Paul Tremblay "[Tremblay] tells the kinds of stories
that reveal the truths nesting inside the things that scare us the
most. If ever I find myself wandering through an apocalyptic
darkness, I would trust Paul Tremblay to hold my flashlight."
--Strange Horizons "Paul Tremblay is one of the most original
authors writing today."
--Upcoming 4 Me "Paul Tremblay's stories sneak up on you quietly
and then . . . wow! You don't know what hit you, but you like it.
And you want more. Powerful, emotional and unforgettable; these are
stories that work their way into your brain and into your heart.
Highly recommended."
--Ann Vandermeer, Hugo Award-winning editor of Weird Tales "If
you're a fan of the likes of Dennis Etchison, Donald Barthelme,
Thomas Ligotti, or Kelly Link, you'll love Paul's work. In any
case, scarf up his books, you can't go wrong."
--Tom Piccirilli, author of Every Shallow Cut "Considering the
quality of Tremblay's short fiction, a collection like In The Mean
Time is long overdue. There are a handful of authors which I
consider are the writer's writer: Jeffrey Ford, Jeff VanderMeer,
Kij Johnson, Mary Robinette Kowal. Paul Tremblay easily belongs to
that list, and this book proves it."
--Charles Tan, Bibliophile Stalker "When you enter the world of
Paul Tremblay most anything can happen, and usually does."
--Richard Thomas, The Nervous Breakdown "Tremblay has a skilled way
of writing stories that linger in the readers mind. He is able to
take characters in out-of-the-ordinary situations and tell their
tale in an unusual and relatable way. The stories leave the reader
to speculate and wonder about the scenarios, characters, and
eventual--but unwritten--outcomes."
--SFReader "Paul Tremblay is a storyteller of the highest
order-edgy, sensitive, and fearless."
--Stewart O'Nan, author of Last Night at the Lobster and Songs for
the Missing "Paul Tremblay creates images of terror and wonder.
Lean, mean, and just a bit on the nasty side, he's a hardnosed
prose stylist with a heavyweight punch. Tremblay is a bona fide
contender."
--Laird Barron, author of The Imago Sequence "Tremblay more than
proves that horror doesn't have to be disgusting or gruesome--at
least initially, and instead employs a more character-driven and
subtle approach. If you're willing to read between the lines,
Tremblay's fiction is one of the most horrific you'll ever
read."
--Philippine Online Chronicles "There's always room for subtlety
and elegance, even in genres like horror, and Paul Tremblay
understands this. What makes his fiction remarkable is that it
creeps up on you, instead of being transparent and overt."
--Bibliophile Stalker
