“These stories can be uncomfortable, difficult, unflinching, but they’re also always entertaining. Johnson writes with an energy that propels you through some very dark spaces indeed and into something profoundly unsettling but nonetheless human.”
—Brian Evenson, author of A Collapse of Horses and Last Days

"I sat down, properly, with a cup of tea, read the first paragraph of the first story, and a disembodied voice shouted, 'You will not close the cover until you read every word.' The voice, as voices go, was a prophet. ENTROPY IN BLOOM crackles with weirdness, style, wit, a befittingly oddball sense of humanity, and a misshapen dark heart. I loved every damn story."
—Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts and Disappearance at Devil's Rock  

“Jeremy Robert Johnson's stories are, simply put, unlike any others you've ever read. It's as if an alien life form picked up a pen and wrote its thoughts in a language comprehensible to humans—reading Johnson, you feel you are in the grip of an immensely powerful, possibly malevolent, but fiercely intelligent mind. Beware! (But enjoy—and trust me, you will.)”
—Nick Cutter, author of Little Heaven and The Troop 

“I've seen the future and it’s bizarre, it’s beautifully berserk, it’s Jeremy Robert Johnson.”
—Stephen Graham Jones, author of Mongrels 

“A dazzling writer. Seriously amazing short stories. While I read them, they made time stand still.”
—New York Times bestselling author Chuck Palahniuk

“One of the most exciting voices in contemporary fiction. Jeremy Robert Johnson’s work has always tested the limits of both genre and literary fiction.”
—Bookslut 

“Jeremy Robert Johnson is dancing to a way different drummer. He loves language, he loves the edge, and he loves us people. This is entertainment...and literature.”
—Jack Ketchum, author of The Girl Next Door and Off Season 

“I’m a longtime fan of Johnson. A master of derangement, he’s been bringing it for years.”
—Laird Barron, author of The Beautiful Thing that Awaits Us All 

“The people populating these stories are real and vital and you WILL care, deeply, about what becomes of them...and in JRJ’s harsh universe, baaaaad things happen. Often. Prepare thyself.”
—Craig Davidson, author of Rust and Bone and The Fighter 

“What makes JRJ’s work stand out from his contemporaries’ is the strange sense of empathy—in that regard he is not unlike David Foster Wallace’s wicked and perhaps deranged younger brother. Sometimes the horror is so understated that it’s deadly. JRJ has the ability to balance sheer humanity with sheer grotesquerie.”
—21C Magazine 

“The guy’s a genius. Reminds me of William Gibson—the dark interest in altered states of consciousness, the unrelentingly furious forward movement, and the same kind of unlimited imagination.”
—Ben Loory, author of Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day 

“Jeremy Robert Johnson performs stand-up comedy for the gods. And their laughter is a marvelous, terrible thing. He’s the kind of post-Lovecraftian genius berserker who makes the Great Old Ones new again. As with Clive Barker, there is no glorious mutational eruption that Johnson can’t nail directly through your gawping mind’s eye.”
—John Skipp, New York Times bestselling author of Spore (with Cody Goodfellow) and The Bridge (with Craig Spector)

“In its most twisted moments, Johnson’s writing is too gleeful to pigeon-hole as strictly horror, and when he steps outside the gross-out game he transcends most other straight literary writers.”
—Verbicide 

“Johnson weaves vivid and fascinatingly grotesque tales.”
—Bookgasm 

“I don't know if Mr. Johnson sold his soul to the devil to give him this gift for nightmare imagery, but by god, this guy can write. Johnson excels at pathology and perversity. A confirmed weirdo and authentic writer of uncommon emotional depth who deserves to be watched.”
—Cemetery Dance 

“Johnson is probably a few books away from doing for horror what Jonathan Lethem did for science fiction. Plain and simple? Forget horror; this is good fiction.”
—Girl on Demand 

“Johnson can write horror, science fiction, crime, and Bizarro. Sometimes he does all of the above within the same story. He’s at once brutal and elegant, innovative and an immediate classic, ridiculously talented and an obvious perfectionist.”
—Horror Talk
