Daryl Gregory

Yes, which leads us to two very different books that tackle this idea.

The first is Daryl Gregory's 2008 novel Pandemonium.

A fantastic read.

Gregory builds this chilling alternate reality where demonic possession is a widespread, everyday feature of life in the U.S.

And I mean, and you want stories that can be dark and scary.

And personally, I think say Blind Monkey, the Daryl Gregory story is as dark a story as is in the book.

And I found it really disturbing in many ways, although not graphic because that's not really my personal thing.

But they're good stories that are funny, that are light, you know, that are completely unexpected.

What else can I read? And you're going, well, you can read the Devourers, Indra's novel.

You can read his Dragoneers novella that he did.

a whole bunch of other stuff, or with Daryl Gregory, or with Paul Tremblay, or whoever it might be.

They all have other stuff.

Finally, I have a familect that I was especially excited about because it's the first time I've heard a familect in a novel.

I was listening to the audiobook of When We Were Real by Daryl Gregory, and then there was this.

She still can't believe her mother demanded to come into the distillery with the rest of the group.

When Beth Ann was 10, her father took the family to Myrtle Beach, a rare vacation outside Clay County, North Carolina.
