"There's a reason that John Farris is a legend among thriller novelists: He's damn good. Phantom Nights is a whirlpool of suspense, dread, and thrills; but it's also fiction of meaning and substance--phenomenal, first-rate Farris!"--Dean Koontz
"America's premiere novelist of terror."--Stephen King

“[An] unusual blend of tenderness and grue. Farris remains one of the most effectively surprising horror writers of his generation.”—Publishers Weekly on Phantom Nights

“Well-drawn characters move swiftly together in a complex, yet neatly laid out series of events. . . . Farris’s graceful and gripping storytelling style is what’s important here. Phantom Nights is another winner from a legendary writer.”—Fangoria on Phantom Nights

“John Farris is the Godfather of thriller writers. He should be blurbing me! Phantom Nights mixes perfectly pitched characters and a brilliant reconstruction of the Eisenhower-era, Jim Crow South into a tasty Southern Gothic stew of race, rage, and retribution from beyond the grave. John Farris has done it again.”
--F. Paul Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of The Tomb and creator of Repairman Jack.

“John Farris has elevated the terror genre into the realm of literature.”
--Richard Matheson, New York Times bestselling author of I Am Legend

“In Phantom Nights, John Farris has raised the ante for writers of psychic thrillers.”
--Lucia St. Claire Robson, New York Times bestselling author of Ride the Wind
