Praise for Leanbh Pearson

We have had a long standing admiration of Pearson’s work…and it was a delight to discover [Three Curses & Other Dark Tales] a fine collection knitted so well together with common themes.

– Gerry Huntman, Managing Director of IFWG

Pearson’s lyrical writing pulls you in…The horror in this story is subtle.
