Praise for deadrush

"A delicate tapestry of bizarre images and intriguing characters." -- Poppy Z. Brite

"Navarro does the near impossible of reviving one of the oldest themes -- the curse of the undead -- by making it fresh, frightening, and uncomfortably relevant... " -- Stanley Wiater

"deadrushis the Pulp Fiction of dark suspense, and Yvonne Navarro is who comes after Clive Barker. From page one, deadrushhad a death grip on me. I loved it." -- Nancy Holder

"The voice of horror has a new cutting edge. Yvonne Navarro places a fresh blood-wet shine on tarnished and familiar themes. Things still do go bump in the night, and there just may be a monster under the bed after all... " -- Kevin J. Anderson

"From the horrifying birth in the beginning to its dark echo at the end, Navarro never lets the reader draw an easy breath. Solid, believable characters -- alive and dead -- make deadrusha roller coaster ride from beginning to end. Not for the squeamish, deadrush is the work of a writer we'll be seeing more of." -- Gary Brandner

"Yvonne Navarro's novel deadrushis in itself a non-stop, obsessive rush. The characters, both dead and alive, are hurled through a nightmarish world in which an addiction stronger than any drug is unleashed, and the reader can only hold on for the ride. The story is pure, terrifying pleasure!" -- Elizabeth Massie

"Yvonne Navarro fulfills the promise shown in her debut, with a novel even richer in complexity, character, and horrors both natural and unnatural. deadrushwalks a compelling line along the borders of life and death, and the eerie gray regions between." -- Brian Hodge

"deadrushis deliciously nasty. Navarro uses richly textured detail to conjure up haunting visual images, some of which will stay with me for a long, long time." -- Elizabeth Engstrom
