Praise for A DARK MATTER "Peter Straub's new novel is a terrifying story of innocents-high school students in the turbulent sixties-who stumble into horrors far beyond their understanding.A Dark Matteris populated with vivid, sympathetic characters, and driven by terrors both human and supernatural. It's the kind of book that's impossible to put down once it has been picked up. It kept me reading far into the night. Straub builds otherworldly terror without ever losing touch with his attractive cast of youngsters, who age beautifully. Put this one high on your list." -Stephen King "PartRashomon, partThe Turn of the Screw. Peter Straub may well be the most important voice in suspense fiction today." -- Lincoln Child "American master Peter Straub takes the sweep of our freaky history over the past forty years, subjects it to all the elegant gifts of madness and arts of haunting of which he is the wicked king, and finds himself in possession of a masterpiece." -- Michael Chabon, author ofThe Yiddish Policemen's UnionandManhood for Amateurs "[A]s dazzling a literary performance as anything Straub has ever written." -Booklist "I've been reading Peter Straub since I was a teenager, and his work is hardwired into my brain. A Dark Mattercontains echoes of all that has been great about Straub's previous work and builds upon it. This Rashomon-like tale is as spooky and frightening as anything he has written, but it's also an intense and moving celebration of love. Out of the darkness comes, ultimately, a surprising and haunting sense of joy." -Dan Chaon, author ofAwait Your Reply "A devastatingly good novel. In its investigation of a dark ritual that casts a decades-long shadow, A DARK MATTER makes you question all you thought you knew about horror and about literature. But it goes well beyond that: it messes with your sense of reality and then, just when you're getting your bearings, scrambles it again." -Brian Evenson, author ofThe Open Curtain From the Hardcover edition., "Straub's return to all-out horror. . . . [He] does it on his own terms, beautifully blending monsters and demons and indescribable evil into a melancholy novel shaped and crafted as carefully as literature, not pulp entertainment. Straub's writing has rarely been better or more precise." - Miami Herald "An alchemy of psychological suspense, supernatural horror and cultural history. . . . Ambitious in its scope and challenging in its telling. . . . Explosive." -Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel "A modern-day supernatural Rashomon. . . . [ A Dark Matter ] leaves one satisfied, still eager for the next book by one of the most adroit masters of the supernatural thriller."-San Francisco Chronicle "[ A Dark Matter ] has it all: shifting perspectives, nested flashbacks, a story that spans four decades, and an attractive, charming cast." -The Onion A.V. Club "Vivid, mysterious. . . . An elegant, multilayered reminiscence. . . . A rich, multi-perspective take on a murky collegiate misadventure in 1966." -TimeOut New York "[Straub] is a master at blurring the supernatural, the real-world-scary and the monsters in your psyche." -Cleveland Plain-Dealer "A powerful, original and utterly engrossing novel about the palpability of evil and its costs. . . . . Nothing less than stunning." -The Globe and Mail "Terrifying. . . . A Dark Matter is populated with vivid, sympathetic characters, and driven by terrors both human and supernatural. It's the kind of book that's impossible to put down once it has been picked up. It kept me reading far into the night. Straub builds otherworldly terror without ever losing touch with his attractive cast of youngsters, who age beautifully. Put this one high on your list." -Stephen King "Part Rashomon , part The Turn of the Screw .

This Rashomon-like tale is as spooky and frightening as anything he has written, but it's also an intense and moving celebration of love. Out of the darkness comes, ultimately, a surprising and haunting sense of joy." -Dan Chaon "Increasingly, Peter Straub brilliantly defies and blurs literary genres. A Dark Matter is a page-turning thriller of every sort: psychological, sociological, epistemological. Plus, it's really scary." -Lorrie Moore "A devastatingly good novel. In its investigation of a dark ritual that casts a decades-long shadow, A Dark Matter makes you question all you thought you knew about horror and about literature. But it goes well beyond that: it messes with your sense of reality and then, just when you're getting your bearings, scrambles it again." -Brian Evenson
