    Praise

    “Humble is, put simply, one of the greatest writers of our time. A heart wrenching story about the gambles we take and how we pay what is owed, To Carry A Body to Its Resting Place is him at his best.”
    Rae Wilde, Author of Merciless Waters and I Can Fix Her

    “TO CARRY A BODY TO ITS RESTING PLACE is sharp, sarcastic in its humour, with the perfect amount of flourish. Through gorgeous descriptions, Humble explores a complex and fractured family, the fragile bonds between fathers and sons, the unbreakable love between a mother and her children, where blood runs thicker and deeper than time and distance. A supernatural western that teaches readers the definition of filial piety, duty, and the true values that one should hold dear in their life with the resounding message: do not save our regrets, love, and apologies for the dead but rather voice them to those still alive.”
    Ai Jiang, Bram Stoker and Nebula award-winning author of LINGHUN
