Description:
PRAISE FOR DR POTTER'S MEDICINE SHOW "Eric Scott Fischl offers up a powerful alchemical elixir concocted of post Civil War historical fiction, dark fantasy, Felliniesque flavoring, all in a ruby goblet of lapidary prose.Take the goblet, and drink deeply." - John Shirley , author of the A Song Called Youth trilogy " Dr. Potter's Medicine Show is a brilliant study of characters struggling against the monstrous to retain their own humanity. Fischl's talent for voice and knack for characterization finds humor and beauty amidst horror and depravity. It's heartbreaking, elegiac, and an absolute pleasure to read." - Carrie Patel , author of the Recoletta series "Fischl has infused his tale of the old west with one part of alchemy and one part of gangster movie. The resultant brew is deliciously dark and entirely compelling." - Rod Duncan ,Philip K Dick Award-nominated author of The Bullet-Catcher's Daughter "A word of advice: whatever you do, don't drink the Sagwa. One part history, two parts fantasy, and three parts toe-curling horror. Drink it down. A grotesque elixir of history, fantasy, and toe-curling horror. Warning: may cause nausea, sleep disturbances, and compulsive page-turning. Not to be taken orally." - Arianne "Tex" Thompson , author of the Children of the Drought trilogy "Dirty, dank, and dangerous. Dr Potter's Medicine Show is the missing season of Carnivle you didn't know you needed until now." - Adam Rakunas , Philip K Dick Award-nominated author of Windswept "I enjoyed reading this. It's well written and the characters are all well rounded and you know they've lived full lives before we met them. There's a very oppressive, claustrophobic atmosphere which builds tension to a satisfying finale." -Helen Lindley "This novel is dark, and at times violent. So be warned. But with each turn of the page I was transported to a different era, to events that were both strange and bizarre, and I loved it." -Buzzing Bookmark "I highly recommend Dr. Potter's Medicine Show . It's a good story with great characters." -Purple Owl Reviews "A great and wonderful read that won't disappoint those used to fantasy, horror or suspense." -The Writers, Artists and Readers Guild
