“The next two books on your list, Fever House and The Devil by Name are by Keith Rosson. And the first one in particular has a classic conceit, which is that there's an evil severed head. We've all been there. Yeah. And the Fever House, and it's just out in hardcover sequel, The Devil by Name, is absolutely bonkers.”
“I will say the devil by name. The followup presents us with a world that has been profoundly changed.
