Description: Praise for Nick Mamatas "Nick Mamatas continues his reign as the sharpest, funniest, most insightful and political purveyor of post-pulp pleasures going. He is the People''s Commissar of Awesome." --China Miville, bestselling author of The City & the City "Mamatas is a powerfully acerbic writer, both in fiction and online. His acid wit is infamous." --Cory Doctorow, bestselling author of Walkaway "Gonzo grindhouse fantasy-- Tales from the Crypt meets Hercules in New York with occasional visits from St Augustine. The blood-spattered epic the current year deserves." --Max Gladstone, author of the Craft Sequence on Sabbath "Dark and hilarious. . . I am Providence is that murder-mystery-in-a-writers-convention you didn''t even know you wanted, but (like the human skin-bound book which propels the plot) you really must buy." --Lavie Tidhar, author of Osama and The Violent Century "If you''re looking for a wacky summer beach read with a dose of horror and you love Lovecraft, I Am Providence will satisfy your abyss of cravings--with some hilarious and pointed jabs at Lovecraftian fandom." -- Fangoria "Mamatas knows his subject inside and out, and that makes I Am Providence all the more cutting. He''s a fan himself, as well as a skeptic, and he turns his considerable authority and satirical skill toward skewering the subculture that''s grown up around Lovecraft over the past century. . . . I Am Providence is pointed social commentary wrapped in a bilious in-joke--but one that''s more than worth getting in on." --Jason Heller, NPR wacky summer beach read with a dose of horror and you love Lovecraft, I Am Providence will satisfy your abyss of cravings--with some hilarious and pointed jabs at Lovecraftian fandom." -- Fangoria "Mamatas knows his subject inside and out, and that makes I Am Providence all the more cutting.
