All Your Friends are Here

By M. Shaw

Shirley Jackson Award Nominee, 2024

"Explores the unnerving and grotesque with glee. Shaw's loose, easy style suits the stories like a glove. Fans of new weird horror will want to check this out."

Publishers Weekly

"Unforgettable, ominous, and provocative. Shaw is a voice to watch in Weird fiction."

Library Journal, starred review

"Dark elegies of loneliness and dissolution set in a world left dangling at the end of history. As an enquirer into the question of what it means to be human, M. Shaw is second to none."

Weird Stories

These stories are so weird, creative and very critical of capitalism and billionaires. My favorites are The Motorist, My Dad Bought a Space Shuttle, The Apology, and Apartémon. The novelette Ready Player (n+1) was both sad and hilarious. I'm excited to read whatever else M. Shaw puts out in the future.
