Got a great endorsement from author Lauren Beukes for THE DAMNED today! (If you haven’t read Lauren’s scary, super-smart THE SHINING GIRLS or BROKEN MONSTERS, you really should. Her writing is insightful, often funny, and her scares are wonderfully weird and dark as the inside of a cow. Big fan).

“Pyper is a master architect of dread…Compulsive and nerve-jangling, THE DAMNED is a story about personal hells and the relationships that haunt us.”

- Lauren Beukes, author of THE SHINING GIRLS and BROKEN MONSTERS

So thrilled to share the news that the film rights to THE DAMNED have been acquired by Legendary Pictures! Very happy that my nasty little offspring has ended up in such good hands.

So my new book, THE DAMNED, is out tomorrow (Feb. 10) across Canada and the US! Hope you grab one and that it keeps you up late. By the way, if you do get a copy on Feb. 10 and post a pic of you with the book to my Twitter handle (@andrewpyper) you could be one of five peeps to get sent a signed copy (my kids will be the judges, so totally impartial). Enjoy!

THE DAMNED is out on the shelves! Hope you grab a copy and let me know what you think of it when you do. Meantime, here's a teaser trailer that's up at Legendary Picture's Facebook page, the company that's making the movie of THE DAMNED. Check it here: https://www.facebook.com/legendary/po...

In its first major review, THE DAMNED gets a rave in The Globe and Mail!

"Pyper has more than mastered the art of the profluent plot and THE DAMNED guarantees many sleepless nights...will get your heart racing without insulting your intelligence. A brilliant conceit." - Globe and Mail
