Daniel Church grew up in Manchester, and still lives in the North of England, with the love of his life. He loves nature, hills, woods, forest, lakes, rivers, the sea and dogs. He also writes horror fiction."<i>The Hollows</i> grabs you by the throat from the first page and doesn't let up. Church has crafted a masterful action-horror in which small town evil meets aeons-buried horror and the personal stakes are just as powerfully rendered as the cosmic ones."<br /><b>– James Brogden</b>, author of <i><b>Hekla’s Children</b></i> <br /><br />"Ellie proves a heroine worth rooting for and the Harper clan make for ruthless and formidable antagonists. This claustrophobic outing is sure to resonate with horror readers."<br /><b> <i> – Publishers Weekly</i></b> <br /><br />“Daniel Church’s tale of a small community ravaged by unnatural forces – and the way its inhabitants fight back – is beautifully told, right from the first finely honed paragraph. It has a wonderfully atmospheric setting, fizzing dialogue and sharply drawn characters you won’t forget in a hurry.”<br /><b><i>– </i>A.J. Elwood,</b> author of <b><i>The Cottingley Cuckoo</i></b><br /> <br /> <i>"The Hollows </i>combines human monstrousness and uncanny dread in a breathlessly suspenseful narrative. Startlingly violent, compellingly weird, it carries us through levels of fear to a climax of cosmic terror worthy of the classics."<br /> – <b>Ramsey Campbell</b>, multiple World Fantasy Award-winner<br /> <br /> "<i>The Hollows</i> is an epically ambitious novel given a quality of intimacy by its depth of characterisation and secure rooting in location and season. Proof that folk horror can be not just sinister, but a white-knuckle ride of thrills."<br /><b>– F.G. Cottam<b>,</b></b> author of <b><b><i>The House of Lost Souls </i></b></b><br /><br />"It should please fans of folk horror such as <i>The Lamb Will Slaughter</i> the Lion by Margaret Killjoy or the folklore-inspired crime fiction of Sharon Bolton’s stand-alone novels."<br /><b> <i> – Booklist</i></b><br /><br />"Folk horror meets small-town police procedural with a side of revenge and redemption as police constable Ellie and a likable group of ragtag helpers work together to stop the end of the world."<br /><b><i>– Library Journal</i></b> <br /><br /> "Stormbound and suspenseful, <i>The Hollows</i> is a barnstorming rollercoaster of action and tension, set on home turf as if John Carpenter directed an episode of <i>Happy Valley</i>."<br /> <b>– Stephen Volk<b>, </b></b>author of<b><b> <i>The Awakening</i></b></b>
