It’s just a fact: Mondays are horrible. So why not spend Mondays reading horror? As a new feature here at FanLit, we’ll be reviewing a horror novel, collection or anthology on Mondays that are just too horrible for a Magazine Monday column. Let's kick off with a look at Stephen M. Irwin’s debut, The Dead Path.
The Dead Path by Stephen M. Irwin
Good horror novels must be devilishly hard to write well. There has to be a proper balance between gore and straightforward exposition; between the supernatural and the real; between those who look askance at magic until it is too late, and those who embrace magic regardless of their previous disbelief. Stephen M. Irwin gets the balance just right in his debut novel, The Dead Path.
