Description: "Immensely entertaining. The pacing is on point, the action set pieces are thrilling, and the stakes are high." - Locus "Genuinely spooky. . . . But the real horror is the reality of life for African Americans in the Jim Crow era . . . sparks the imagination while also igniting the reader's empathy." - Library Journal on Lovecraft Country "Ruff's sequel to 2016's Lovecraft Country delivers another virtuoso blend of horror, action, and humor. . . . Fans will find this a worthy sequel." - Publishers Weekly "One ripping yarn with shocks and surprises at every turn. . . . Lots of fun--and, at times, historically enlightening." - Kirkus Reviews "The same genre-blending, dark humor, and creepy atmosphere from the first book . . . readers will be held captive until the thrilling conclusion. This series excels in how it continues to draw parallels between its pulpy plot and the entire civil rights movement. The cosmic dilemmas make for a great read, but the unease is amplified by readers' knowledge that these Black characters are about to be thrust into a very real fight for freedom." - Library Journal "A spectacular follow-up to Lovecraft Country . . . Few writers can manage a cast of characters this large with Ruff's deft hand--they are likeable, individual, and we root for all of them . . . It makes for an extremely fast-paced, high-stakes read as we ping-pong around the Jim Crow south and all the way to the end of the universe." - Cory Doctorow "Another 'only Matt Ruff could do this' production. Lovecraft Country takes the unlikeliest of premises and spins it into a funny, fast, exciting and affecting read." - Neal Stephenson on LOVECRAFT COUNTRY "Lovecraft Country rubs the pervasive, eldritch dread of Lovecraft's universe against the very real, historical dread of Jim Crow America and sparks fly. . . . Ruff renders a very high-concept, imaginary world with such vividness that you can't help but feel it's disturbingly real." - Christopher Moore on LOVECRAFT COUNTRY "Nonstop adventure that includes time-shifting, shape-shifting, and Lovecraft-like horrors. . . . Ruff, a cult favorite for his mind-bending fiction, vividly portrays racism as a horror worse than anything conceived by Lovecraft in this provocative, chimerical novel." - Booklist (starred review) on LOVECRAFT COUNTRY
