"It is useless trying to escape from the one who hungers. If you are a young musician like Perry... a beautiful and highly-sexed woman like Lois... a searching scientist like Rofocale... or any of the other men, women or children in the seemingly peaceful town of Jasper, Oregon -- then you will not want to believe that there is a bone-chilling primordial evil hiding in the shadows of your worst nightmare. Waiting for you . And you will not want to believe that you will never escape the horror of its parasitical cunning..." [jacket blurb, UK pbk, 1991]
"Shirley preys on our primordial fear of the dark with a vengeance. Is it simply our imagination, or a sinister mind parasite?
"Steven Spielberg wouldn't choose this little town for one of his movies". --Henry W.Targowski (in Mark/Space , 1995).
