Reviews
“Malfi makes reading about the perils of reading a terrifying delight.”
Publishers Weekly, Starred Review“Malfi makes horror feel viscerally real by showing it to us through the eyes of his vividly described characters—if they are frightened, apprehensive, or just confused, so are we.”
Booklist“This is what it is to be transported: you might think you’re on solid ground, but Come with Me is a story that will carry you, inescapably, into the uncanny, the horrific.”
Andrew Pyper, author of The Residence“It’s no coincidence that there are four chambers to the human heart and Ronald Malfi’s ‘Ghostwritten’, both bound by muscle and full of blood, but once this quartet of nightmarish novellas gets pumping, your own ticker is sure to stop.”
Clay McLeod Chapman, author of 'Whisper Down the Lane'“Malfi is a modern-day Algernon Blackwood… I’m gonna be talking about this book for years”
Josh Malerman, author of Bird Box“Part mystery, part ghost story, Come with Me chimes with rare beauty and page-turning brilliance. I surrendered to it completely.”
Rio Youers, author of Lola on Fire
