Baltimore
Reviews "Baltimore is an old time rootin' tootin' sense of wonder story dragged through a modern blender, then slow baked in hell. I loved it. It was velvet bullet -- speedy and rich in sensation. Go boys, go." -- Joe R. Lansdale "With Baltimore, Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden lay siege to the reader's imagination with a grim battalion of gothic images and a thunderous barrage of narrative artillery. This is not a novel: it's a war machine. Surrender immediately." -- Joe Hill, author of Heart-Shaped Box "The lush, labyrinthine BALTIMORE evokes the best from two of our most gifted artists. Christopher Golden and Mike Mignola have created a book that will be enjoyed and admired for decades to come." -- Peter Straub "I have admired
Mike Mignola both as an artist and as a tremendous story teller pretty
much since his career began. In this collaboration with Christopher Golden
it's fair to say he surpasses himself. He and Golden have produced a witty
classic of supernatural fiction." -- Michael Moorcock
"Mignola and Golden create a haunting allegory on the nature of war,
fusing the poignancy of Hans Christian Anderson's "The Steadfast Tin
Soldier," the supernatural chills of Dracula and the horrors of WWI
and the subsequent influenza epidemic . . .Stark monochrome illustrations
from Mignola enhance this dramatic tale of war and fear." -- Publishers
Weekly
"Mythic adventure,
midway between Lovecraft and the Brothers Grimm. The book burns with
black inspiration." -- Sci Fi Magazine "Outstanding,
gorgeously told and wildly inventive. Mike Mignola's outstanding black-and-white
illustrations turn the book into a beautiful object and add to its overall
storybook quality. He and Golden have outdone themselves with Baltimore,
a gorgeous, haunting tale that may well become a classic." -- Fangoria
