Who's your favorite Horror author?
Just wondering?
|
1. Stephen King
2. Richard Laymon 3. Brian Keene 4. Gord Rollo 5. Jack Ketchum |
Nobody tops Lovecraft for me.
|
I guess I'd have to go with:
Edward Lee Wrath James White Rex Miller Jeffery Thomas Edgar Allan Poe |
jack ketchum
richard matheson philip pullman khaled hosseini james herbert john steinbeck lovecraft edgar allan poe |
I always like to mention Bentley Little.
Although he's not strictly horror, the Marquis De Sade has written some incredibly disturbing stories. |
Clive Barker
HP Lovecraft Edgar Allan Poe James Herbert Anne Rice Ramsey Campbell. Not strictly horror but Iain Banks wrote the scariest book I've ever read-The Wasp Factory and if you don't mind sci fi horror his Iain M.Banks stuff is great too. |

The sickest most messed up book I've ever read (or almost read I had to put it down, it was just way to sick) is Hogg: A Novel - Samuel R. Delany. I wouldn't recommend it. Even though the Wasp Factory was disturbing it had a good story, Hogg was just sick to be sick.

Yeah that's why I adore The Wasp Factory-the nasty stuff was backed up with an amazing story. I don't think I would enjoy a book that was just sick to be sick so what you said is duly noted.
