"A dark, claustrophobic read" --T. Kingfisher

"Readers get an intimate glimpse into the fraying edges of each character's psyches, the constant hunger, the paranoia, the loss of hope, and far worse... A combination of supernatural and psychological horror, The Watchers will appeal to fans of Kealan Patrick Burke, Josh Malerman, and Scott Smith" --A.E. Siraki, Booklist

"Intense and thrilling, The Watchers is a great debut and solid addition to the survival horror sub-genre" --Read By Dusk

"A brisk, at times scary but thoroughly enjoyable read" --Bloody Flicks

"A clever, highly original story beautifully written" --The Untidy Bookshelf

"The Watchers was a punch to the jugular... The author pulled out the rug from under me on more than one occasion. A must-read for the spooky season!" --The Coy Caterpillar Reads
