Praise for Adrian Van Young ". . . a deeply disquieting portrait of
19th Century America. . . . A fabulous and weird addition to the
contemporary fantastic."
--Laird Barron, author of X's for Eyes "Shadows in Summerland is an
extraordinary novel certain to enchant readers of Sarah Waters as
well as those looking for a thrilling and transporting gothic tale
rich in atmosphere and unforgettable characters, dead and
alive."
--Julia Fierro, author of Cutting Teeth "Shadows in Summerland is a
rich, strange, elegant novel of the supernatural, firmly rooted in
the best of classic gothic fiction. . . . A superb achievement of
weird fiction by a burgeoning master."
--Michael Rowe, author of Enter, Night and Wild Fell ". . . a witty
and disturbing horror novel: it's as if Henry James had written an
issue of Tales From the Crypt."
--Bennett Simms, author of A Questionable Shape
