Publisher Review

‘Some books are just too good. Handling the Undead is superbly written, with beautifully drawn, fully realised characters, a lively, well-constructed narrative and a wonderfully paced and balanced plot. It’s an intensely atmospheric book … it’s a masterpiece, fantastically well-written and totally gripping’ SFX magazine. * SFX * ‘It’s not often I come across a writer as original, compelling or as inventive as Lindqvist … the haunting imagery stays lodged in the mind long after the book is finished’ Mail On Sunday. * Mail On Sunday * ‘Reminiscent of Stephen King at his best.
