 “Thomas creates a detailed, transcendental world full of both beauty and brutality. There are too many monsters to count, and yet we still dare to hope. My favorite work of his to date.”—Multiple Bram Stoker Award-winning author, Mercedes M. Yardley 

“A numinous slow burn blending foul and folklore from one of horror’s best, Richard Thomas’s Incarnate is a sumptuous and sinister exploration of human sin.”—Lee Murray, five-time Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of Grotesque: Monster Stories 

“Incarnate is a stunningly creepy supernatural thriller set in the remote arctic. It captures the terror of being alone in the frozen darkness with something dreadful. Weird and thrilling!”—Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of The Sleepers War and NecroTek “

Thomas’s characters peer behind the thin veil between worlds, mapping a landscape that’s sinister but not hopeless. Incarnate will stick with you long after the last page.”—Angela “A.G.” Slatter, award-winning author of The Briar Book of the Dead 

“Thomas is one of the best when it comes to the art of visceral horror. Incarnate is as cold and immaculate as winter in the deep arctic.”—Laird Barron, author of Not a Speck of Light (Stories) 

“Richard Thomas is a major name in the horror genre, and his latest book, Incarnate, once again proves why. This is a strange, profound, and powerful tale about good and evil, and it’s one that will stick with you long after you’ve turned the final page.”—Gwendolyn Kiste, Lambda Literary and Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Reluctant Immortals and The Haunting of Velkwood 

“Incarnate is a harrowing look into the world of a sin-eater stationed at the end of the world. Richard Thomas manages to harness the northern lights into a brutal story about weathering the frozen tundra as well as the suffering of all mankind. Graceful, cosmic, and heartbreaking, Incarnate is a universe unto itself.”—Gus Moreno, author of This Thing Between Us 

“In Incarnate Richard Thomas shows himself to be a master alchemist who can spin elements of a survival tale, healing magick, cosmic horror, and true environmental dread into pure dark gold that’s enchanting, truly weird, and utterly frightening.”—Lisa Morton, six-time Bram Stoker-Award winner 

“Richard Thomas’s Incarnate burns like cold ice. Forged from classic weird fiction, the feeling of isolation never lets up, even as the stakes rise to impossible heights. Incarnate offers a glimpse into a dark portal where nefarious things are all too anxious to cross over. This is Thomas at his best: dark, unforgiving, and painfully redemptive.”—John Palisano, Bram Stoker Award-Winning author of Requiem and Placerita 

“Reading Incarnate is a visceral experience—weird cosmic horror at its purest. Brutal and unforgiving, Thomas’s novel is epic in its scope and ideas. The creature horror is mind-blowing—endlessly unique and fascinating in its variety. In his skilled hands, even the wildest beast is human and capable of redemption. I truly don’t know how else to describe this meditative, monstrous, delicate, icicle-sharp novel. You’ll just have to taste it for yourself.”—Sam Rebelein, author of the Bram Stoker Award-Nominated novel Edenville 

“Incarnate is a mournful meditation on the solitude of sin and the connective cosmic web that binds both man and monster together. Richard Thomas writes of our fall from grace with such transcendent eloquence, such astute empathy for the wicked and divine, it’s enough to rekindle a reader’s faith in the power of horror literature.”—Clay McLeod Chapman, author of What Kind of Mother and Ghost Eaters
