John Saul
A bestselling master of suburban dread, whose chillers turn children and small towns into vessels of terror.
John Saul is a hugely successful American author of horror and suspense, with a long string of New York Times bestsellers built on a reliable, unsettling formula: ordinary families and seemingly innocent children menaced by dark secrets, psychological terror, and forces that often blur the supernatural with the scientific. Suffer the Children and Comes the Blind Fury are among his early hits.
While primarily a horror writer, Saul frequently reaches into speculative territory — genetic experiments, medical and scientific menace, and the uncanny — that places his creepier titles on the edge of the SF and speculative shelf. Expect accessible, page-turning dread and a sure hand with suburban menace. His creepier, more speculative titles are scattered among the straight thrillers on our shelves, and because the dread can run genuinely dark, each book page carries an age and content rating so you can gauge exactly how unsettling a given story gets before you open it.
