5.0

If you are reading this, then chances are that you are a big fan of horror. You like to be scared. You like to feel uncomfortable. You like to see and read things that make you squirm. But being the big fan of horror that you are, you've probably seen it all and haven't seen or read anything that has truly terrified you in years. I get it, I feel the same way. It's hard to be shocking in today's world.

Jonathan Moon has found a way to be shocking in today's world.

Even if you've read his collection MR MOON'S NIGHTMARES, you'll still be shocked at the level of depravity he achieves with HEINOUS. Nothing can prepare you for this. Imagine looking out the window and seeing your infant child standing in the middle of a busy street. That sunken chest, punch-in-the-gut feeling is all I can think to compare HEINOUS with. Jonathan Moon shows no mercy.

Moon is going places... fast. His work stands out far from the crowd of young (and, hell, even most of the older) horror writers. Moon will soon be synonymous with horror, just as is King, Barker, and Koontz. It's only a matter of time.
