"
Blowback," the ebook edition of my first collection of dark/weird/transgressive fiction, is
just out on the Kindle Store.
Here's what
one reviewer said about the
paperback edition:
"Worlds achingly familiar and eerily alien, the light of love coexisting with the darkest spasms of violent emotion and cruel detachment which may be found in the human spirit ... reads as though some mad literary alchemist threw Lucien Greaves, Banksy, and William S. Burroughs in a blender and hit 'liquify,' or perhaps discovered the suicide note one of Lovecraft's protagonists folded between the leaves of
Beyond Good and Evil..."
"Shades of the crueler moments of the 'Metamorphoses' are evoked with an almost clinical languidness through the callous observations of the torments inflicted under the narrator's unblinking eye, as chilling as listening to a condemned serial killer linger lovingly over the details of their crimes ..."
"Mackintosh engages with the written word as a creative expression of some cleansing fire of the spirit, an act of atonement that builds rather than destroys, an orgasmic confession joining pain to redemption that instills a sense of almost voyeuristic guilt in the reader who will likely be unable to look away: perhaps fascinated, perhaps repulsed, perhaps changed... and certainly never bored."
