A brilliant and flayed slice of Midwest gothic. While one might find traces of Poppy Z. Brite or Michael McDowell here, The World Below is wholly its own beast. Peak laces the classic premise of feuding, cursed families with high-potency LSD, forming something fresh, potent, and filled with ache.-B.R. Yeager, author of Negative Space
Violent, noir-soaked horror infuses every page of David Peak's astonishing The World Below, coiling like a serpent around love: first and lost loves, love of family and the land, love of darkness and blood. Peak mixes the most primal of emotions like an alchemist, leaving every reader transformed.-Livia Llewellyn, author of Furnace
The World Below is an incredible page turner of a novel. The fascinating, well-rendered characters, all members of two long-feuding families, clash with pyrotechnic, psychedelic, and dynamic results. The World Below puts in mind an unholy but glorious union of William Faulkner's Light in August and Grant Morrison's The Invisibles. Peak's prose is wise, mysterious, and philosophically deep, but is always riveting. My highest recommendation. Don't miss this one!-Jon Padgett, author of The Secret of Ventriloquism
