The Country Under Heaven

Paise for The Country Under Heaven:

“A haunting, violent, touching, episodic fever dream of a novel that spans from the Civil War to the post-war Wild West. I’ve never read anything quite like it.” —C.J. Box, #1 NYT Bestselling Author of Three-Inch Teeth

"The best of the (weird) west. Durbin invokes eldritch terrors to examine the peculiar, lawless hellscape that was the American West following the civil war.  Delicately written, beautifully told, and bristling with dark turns of the unexplainable,The Country Under Heaven is a phenomenal read." —Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger


“The Country Under Heaven is a brilliant exploration of the Old West and even older supernatural horrors. Elegant, thrilling, and deeply satisfying! Highly recommended!” —Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of the Joe Ledger thrillers

Praise for A Green and Ancient Light:

"This gentle, engaging, and very personal coming-of-age story is mythic in its universality." —Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW

 "Durbin gives his story an old-fashioned fairy-tale feel...and imbues his settings with a languorous sense of being outside of time. This is a magical book that will appeal to those who loved Neil Gaiman’s The Ocean at the End of the Lane and John Connolly’s The Book of Lost Things." — Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW

"The same magic flows in its veins as does in those of the classic The Last Unicorn or, more recently, Neil Gaiman’s The Ocean at the End of the Lane...I left a piece of my heart with A Green and Ancient Light." — Barnes & Noble Sci-Fi and Fantasy blog
