Books

The Night's Dream series takes place in the realms most familiar to you. They are books that dwell in the shadows that you think you see out of the corner of your eye, our world, and yet not the one we would want to admit. In a twisted version of the Hudson Valley -- one occupied by vampire maternity nurses and self-interested angels, by displaced spirits wearing the masks of aliens, by possessed pumpkins and tree sprites who teach botany to ungrateful undergrads -- the characters deal with the strangest circumstance of all: trying to figure out what it means to lead a normal life.

Reviews:

one of the most engaging books I've ever read.

Quackenbush is a talented writer, without doubt. The dry, witty humour was worth reading the book for on its own.
