Imagine if classical Southern writers such as WILLIAM FAULKNER and CARSON MCCULLERS had spent a summer vacation with H. P. LOVECRAFT, and the result would be the BLACKWATER series, by Michael McDowell. This is gritty, neo-Southern Gothic horror at its most slippery, creepy and conniving, leaving the reader to suspect that the Cthulhu mythos had indeed spread to flood-drenched Alabama in 1919. This 6-part series of novels were released as paperback originals in 1983, and have become classics in the horror genre ever since.
