"Blanky is a moody and grim tale told by a master wordsmith. Can Kealan Patrick Burke write a bad story? I don’t think so. Highly recommended."
"another spectacular tale from Kealan Patrick Burke. This is a story that is rich with “real” characters, poignant emotions, and that darker side which can truly take your imagination . . . anywhere. Few authors can make a story work as well as this one."
"a beautifully written story that just flowed with ease across the pages. I couldn’t put it down."
"The best part of Blanky is that it is an uncomfortable read. There are too many heroes in horror fiction that want to kill the monster as soon as it shows up. In this narrative, we start with a broken man and then watch as he enters a dark, scary world where he loses even more and flirts with insanity. This is a welcome change, and only one of the reasons why you should grab your favorite blanket and snuggle in the sofa with this book as soon as possible."
"I couldn’t put the story out of my mind, even after I read the final lines."
"There are shades of Bentley Little in the way the mundane turns sour, though tinted in a tone more befitting of an Ira Levin unraveling, and then crashing down as if driven into a tree by Eleanor Vance."
