Praise for The Buffalo Hunter Hunter
“For me and vampires, there is Stoker, there is Rice, and now there is Jones. It's harrowing, agonizing, nuanced, and downright philosophical. Very likely Jones's masterpiece.”
—Daniel Kraus, New York Times bestselling author of Whalefall
“Stephen Graham Jones tears into the flesh of vampire lore, transforming it into something raw and feral. Jones crafts a stark, unnervingly poetic narrative. This is vampire horror reimagined in the sharp glare of a history America cannot escape.”
—Shane Hawk, co-editor of Never Whistle At Night
“Stephen Graham Jones has lit a slow-burning candle that grows into a forest fire, illuminating the life of a Pikuni vampire and everyone he has touched, the pain of being a victim and perpetrator of violent history, and how memory serves to keep us who we are despite it all. The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is beautiful, terrifying, sad, funny, and grotesque — everything I want in a novel.”
—Jessica Johns, author of Bad Cree
“A master at blending horror, suspense, and culturally rich stories that are as thought-provoking as they are spine-tingling. Jones’s singular voice and exploration of identity, of trauma and survival, make every page pulse with kinetic urgency.”
—David Robertson, author of The Theory of Crows
“A riveting story of heartbreak, death, and revenge, this remarkable work of American fiction, a thought-provoking tale filled with existential terror, unease, and a high body count, transforms, in Jones’ deft hands, from the unapologetic horror novel it most certainly is into a critique of the entire idea of the United States—a critique that, despite the horrors, both real and supernatural, is forcefully infused with both heart and hope.”
—Booklist, starred review
“It’s as much an autopsy of institutionalized treachery as a demonization of its tragic and terrifying 'villain.' A weirdly satisfying and bloody reckoning with some of America’s most shameful history.”
—Kirkus, starred review
“A remarkably well-wrought work of historical horror that will captivate Jones’s fans and newcomers alike.”
—Publisher's Weekly, starred review
“While this is a unique vampire story, it is also grief horror, portraying the mourning of a land and a people, inscribing profound sorrow for what was and what can never be again.”
—Library Journal, starred review
“(A) gruesome joyride of a novel.”
—The New York Times
“The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is Stephen Graham Jones' horror masterpiece. The prose is gorgeous and the plot is complex. The author of The Only Good Indians returns again with a spellbinding yarn about one of the bloodiest, most significant parts of the nation's history.”
—NPR
“Inventive and spine-tingling, The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is the best book I’ve read in ages. It’s a master class in voice... Queasy, uneasy, The Buffalo Hunter Hunter plays with the interplay between religion and historical guilt, identity and appetite.”
—The Washington Post
“Jones has written his Interview with the Indigenous Vampire ... A landmark of horror and historical fiction alike, perhaps the closest thing we have to horror’s Moby-Dick.”
