description: Since the turn of the twenty-first century Matt Cardin has distinguished himself by writing weird fiction with a distinctively cosmic and spiritual focus. Inspired by H. P. Lovecraft and Thomas Ligotti Cardin explores the convergence of religion horror and art in a cosmos that may be actively hostile to our species. In this substantial volume Cardin gathers the totality of his short fiction. In tales long and short some substantially revised from their original appearances and including a new novella co-written with Mark McLaughlin Cardin rings a succession of changes on those fateful words from the Book of Job: Let those sorcerers who place a curse on days curse that day those who are skilled to rouse Leviathan. Aside from his fiction Matt Cardin is the editor of Born to Fear: Interviews with Thomas Ligotti (2014) and Horror Literature through History (2015) and co-editor of the journal Vastarien.
