The Night Cyclist is a creepy, action-packed horror novelette. I don't know whether Stephen Graham Jones is a chef, nor do I know whether he actually goes cycling along treacherous mountain roads at night, but his detailed descriptions of both cooking and cycling lead me to assume he has a lot of experience in both. Can anybody tell me? If that is not the case, he has done a stunning amount of research for this story. The Night Cyclist fills the senses - all of them - and pulls the reader into its isolated, nocturnal setting. It starts off as a mystery story, then quickly twists and turns its way into a terrifying tale of supernatural horror.
