I have about 1/4 left of Katie by Michael McDowell. As I mentioned many times, this is a writer kingricefan turned me on to a while back and I will forever be grateful! I can't believe I totally overlooked this author when he was alive and writing! If you like well-written horror served up with a wry sense of humor and original storytelling, then this is the author for you! My go-to "back in the day" other than SK was John Saul (Suffer the Children, etc.) but man, his stuff is so formulaic and poorly written. Michael McDowell blows all the other "second tier" writers away!
