Praise for Derek Muk

“Sometimes a book comes in the mail and you think Sweet Baby Moses, what is going on here? The Demon Seeds was one of these titles. However, I did have an idea of what I was getting into having read the author’s work before, aside from the outrageous cover.  The gruesome points are pulpy in paperback hay-day voice and reveal.  As far as an hour of fun goes, you can do a heck of a lot worse than Muk’s The Demon Seeds.”  –Unnerving Magazine

“A quick read, fun and engaging, with interesting characters and that setup for many more adventures.”  — The Horror Fiction Review

“Producers take note: most of the case studies in this collection would make a popular TV series, say – Most Haunted meets The Twilight Zone.”  —Geoff Nelder, on The Occult Files of Albert Taylor
