What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Stephen King meets Sesame Street in this delightfully unhinged, mind-bending horror novel … Brockway uses the outre stuffed animal-based gore and outright evil villain to craft a smart and surprisingly touching metaphor for growing up. This thoroughly original tale has heart, menace, and just the right blend of fluff and guts.”―Publishers Weekly, starred review
“Brockway’s latest alternates between body blows of caustic whimsy and uppercuts of body horror, and you’ll never know which is coming next. Be warned: Many children are harmed, so this novel is not for the faint of heart. But then again, neither is childhood.”―Jason Pargin, New York Times bestselling author of the John Dies at the End series
“A chimerical, page-turning wonder of magic and menace, held together by the big, beating heart at its center.”―Jeremy Robert Johnson, author of The Loop
“I Will Kill Your Imaginary Friend for $200 captures that magical time in childhood we look back on as adults and realize we were in a hell of a lot more danger than we ever thought possible.”―Stephen Blackmoore, author of Dead Things
“Equal parts beautiful and skin-crawlingly creepy, this is probably the most heartwarming horror story I’ve ever read.”―Peter Clines, New York Times bestselling author of God’s Junk Drawer and The Broken Room
“A wild-eyed, psychedelic madhouse of a novel that sucker punches you before you can get away, then sits on your chest and makes you read it.”―Jackson Ford, author of The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind and The Bone Raiders
“Funny as balls and creepy as hell.”―Django Wexler, author of Everybody Wants to Rule the World Except Me
