Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Turnbull’s short fiction is a universe of quiet marvels, piercing emotions, and bold imagination. I love his monsters, especially his werewolves, I love his flawed heroes, and I especially love all the subtle and incisive ways he explores human relationships—love, communities, family. This collection is a treasure trove of finely crafted stories and a must-read for any fan of speculative fiction.” Maria Haskins, author of Six Dreams About the Train and Wolves & Girls
“Good stories deliver a kind of electric zap to the head and to the heart, and this is what Cadwell Turnbull’s stories do. I meant to read them more slowly, but instead I read one story and thought, ‘just one more,’ and having read one more thought again, ‘just one more,’ until I’d reached the end of the collection. I loved these stories individually, and as a collection they are a feast.” Kelly Link, author of White Cat, Black Dog
“Haunting. Fantastic. Mesmerizing. All the Hidden Places takes readers on an imaginative ride with spellbinding tales of dystopian futures, the monsters that live among us, wandering gods, and more. Cadwell Turnbull is one of the most gifted storytellers of our age—and in this latest offering, he does not disappoint!” P. Djèlí Clark, Nebula, Locus, and British Fantasy Award–winning author of A Master of Djinn
“A dazzling collection of speculative stories from one of the top talents in the field, All the Hidden Places displays Cadwell Turnbull’s wide-ranging imagination and unique vision: Dystopian worlds, ancient magic, and monsters from Caribbean folklore merge in stories unlike anything else you’ve ever read or ever will. At the same time, no matter how cosmic the scale, Turnbull never loses sight of the human dimension—the fears, struggles for connection, and hard-won moments of grace that define our lives.” Joshua David Bellin, author of Myriad
All the Hidden Places is, in a word, spectacular. Turnbull spins aching, vibrant connections between his characters and their families, their communities, their monsters, and their gods. Each story is constructed with reverence and precision; together, they are facets of an astonishing universe. Turnbull is a Grandmaster in the making.” Emma Osborne, author of Grief Eater
“Any excuse to get lost in Cadwell Turnbull’s words is a cause for celebration, but a collection of his short stories is a feast. His stories burrow under your skin, alive with both historical memory and current events. His characters navigate a landscape that have been broken in all-too-familiar ways. Asking what it means to survive an unraveling of life while trying to make sense of it. And yet there is a persistent, unsentimental compassion to his work. Luminous, strange, and deeply human, now is your excuse to get lost in Cadwell Turnbull’s worlds.” Maurice Broaddus, librarian, community organizer, and author of the Astra Black trilogy
“Whether it’s within our own world, or some landscape beyond our imagining, Cadwell Turnbull renders in precise prose what it means to be human: how we love, fear, and try to be. These stories serve as both a mirror and a guide, at times terrifying in their clarity, but always moving and enjoyable to read.” Isabel Yap, author of Never Have I Ever: Stories
“Here is a collection of marvels—tales of horror, politics (but I repeat myself), loss, and creation—artfully constructed and beautifully told. Turnbull’s voice is unique and unforgettable, fantastic and fantastical.” Karen Joy Fowler, Nebula and World Fantasy Award–winning author of Booth
“Among the most hidden of the hidden places revealed in Cadwell Turnbull’s stories is the human heart. In ‘The Letters Tryptych’—three stories, each from the point of view of one of three siblings in the dystopian future US that we seem to be headed for—we see how the technological affects the social which affects the political which affects the personal. The resulting chain of action and reaction, tragedy and hope, shows how speculative fiction can present a true picture of actual people in the actual world. ‘A promise is a sandcastle; time, a tide.’” John Kessel, Nebula Award–winning author of The Moon and the Other and Pride and Prometheus
