Re: Kathe Koja
 

Well,both Koja and TLO have Detroit backgrounds, both seem to be very private people, both seem to be extremely intelligent, and both are brilliant stylists.

I've read all of Koja's horror; 'Skin' is the best IMO. An essay on industrial alterna-culture and madness. The style is rich, severe, and angry. She's also adept at getting inside her character's heads and building realistic psychologies.

As someone said above, too bad she stopped that and is writing children's books now, although I'm sure she's good at that, too. If you get on her website, there's no hint that she used to write horror. I wonder if she's disowned that phase of her career?

Recommended, in order:

'Skin'
'The Cypher'
'Strange Angels'
al the rest

Looks like Kathe Koja is back with a new adult novel. Someone elsewhere drew my attention to this trailer featuring shadow puppets!!!
