What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Intricate and deftly written.”–BookPage
“The writing is as fresh as always…Fast-paced, atmospheric, and dark enough to satisfy fans of Barron’s previous work in horror, Worse Angels is a crime thriller with a heart full of black magic; a meaty novel full of creepy moments in which the threat of violence is constant.”–Criminal Element
“Great plot, but the true treasure is Barron’s astoundingly wonderful and distinctive prose style. His descriptions and dialogue are sublime and, overall, he’s a beautiful, witty writer whose allusions to or forays into philosophy, archaeology, science and history are enough to make the reader smile with delight.”–The Day
