“Never Whistle at Night, Part II: Back for Blood is bone chilling. It grabs you by the throat and never lets up! These stories are singular and terrifying, period, but the fact that this Indigenous horror anthology is also world expanding makes it a must-have for any horror lover’s bookshelf.”
—Tananarive Due, author of The Reformatory
“As nuanced as they are razor-sharp, the stories here serve as another reminder just how vast and potent the horror field is. An uncompromising, blood-drenched collection of tales from voices both new and familiar. It’s even better than the first volume.”
—Keith Rosson, author of Coffin Moon
“Eerie, visceral, truly terrifying, and so beautifully done. I loved every story in this collection, and it is just as mind-blowing and incredible as the first one. Another blockbuster from an unbelievable roster of powerhouse authors. A perfect horror anthology.”
—CJ Leede, author of Maeve Fly
“Never Whistle At Night, Part II: Back For Blood, carries the weight and magic of the oldest storytelling traditions on this continent. Back for Blood is Indigenous horror at full force, unflinching, culturally rich, and alive with lyrical and powerful voices. Shane Hawk and Theodore C. Van Alst Jr. have assembled an essential collection.”
—Cynthia Pelayo, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of It Came From Neverland
“With a broad spectrum of tales about identity, apocalypse, existential crises, and more, Never Whistle at Night, Part II delivers on its promise of blood while exploring themes of grief, rage, transformation, and the horror of being human. Replete with monsters that are hairy, scary, scaly, and sometimes human, this anthology reminds us that skin can be shed for better… or worse.”
—Ally Russell, USA Today bestselling author of It Came From the Trees
“The collection demonstrates the diversity and breadth of voices to be found in Native and First Nations horror. Those who loved the first collection will find even more to love here. It is also recommend for fans of authors like Jessica Johns … or Stephen Graham Jones … who want to discover more Native horror.”
