Fast pacing, violent escalation and increasingly inescapable situations define Bryan Smith's horror and crime fiction. Depraved begins a series of extreme backwoods horror involving a dangerous rural community, while The Killing Kind follows a road journey destabilised by a violent stranger. 68 Kill shifts towards crime noir, centring on a robbery that becomes increasingly chaotic, and Slowly We Rot uses a more isolated, apocalyptic setting. Smith's prose is direct, pulpy and action-led, with black humour appearing alongside gore and criminal desperation. His bibliography sits most naturally across splatterpunk, extreme horror and crime thrillers, particularly for readers of Richard Laymon or Jack Ketchum who want confrontational material and rapid momentum. Depraved is the clearest starting point for the horror series, while 68 Kill shows his leaner crime side. Read more Less
