"It's a story of memory, families, and faith, all drenched in an oppressively hostile atmosphere, where past and present tangle, culminating in a knot of psychedelic phantasmagoria. By turns horrific and heartbreaking, Inhalation is a fresh and masterful exploration of what it means to be haunted." -- B.R. Yeager, Author of Negative Space "Boulerice takes us into Milo's world, rife with childhood trauma, a toxic sibling rivalry to beat all sibling rivalries, cults, and a haunted house with a truly scary Cosmic Horror monstrosity at the center of it all." -- Lauren Bolger, Author of The Barre Incidents "A bit like having your sleep paralysis demons invite themselves in whenever they please, Inhalation approaches terminal illness and the cult of religion in a way that forgoes asking permission, and instead forces you to grapple with the monster in the room." -- Michael Bettendorf, Author of TRVE CVLT and MIDWESTERN CHROME "Boulerice crafts a truly heartbreaking work of cosmic horror with Inhalation . It's got religious zealots, nightmare angels, familial tragedy, and the perfect ratio of dark humor to creeping dread.
At moments tender and at others savage, this is one you don't want to miss." -- Corey Farrenkopf, Author of Living in Cemeteries and Haunted Ecologies " Inhalation beautifully addresses toxic family dynamics, harmful religiosity, and grief while also delivering a truly chilling supernatural terror that will have you holding your breath until the last page." -- Emma E. Murray, author of Crushing Snails "INHALATION is a heavily-layered journey of remembrance, love, loss, and family obligation. Michael Boulerice blends all these elements together as skillfully as an artist, all while forcing us to look at the dark thing in the corner, at the thing that aims to destroy us all. This one will leave you peering into the shadows long after the story is over." -- Candace Nola, author of Demons in my Bloodstream "A gorgeous spiral of decay punctuated with hope and heart, Boulerice wields his heartbreaking prose like a sword. The kind of book that cuts you to the quick and leaves you begging for another hit.
" -- Bridget D. Brave, author and game designer "In Inhalation, a dying man goes home to remember why he ran. Some families pray together. His learned how to feed God. Boulerice writes with the confidence of an OG and the recklessness of someone with something to prove. Lock in."-- David Simmons, author of Ghosts of East Baltimore and Eradicator "Michael Boulerice writes larger-than-life characters and then hits them with a monstrous sledgehammer again and again until your emotions are a bloody pulp." -- David Corse, author of Cerulean Sky.
