Besides winning the HWA much-sought after Bram Stoker Award, the collection has received outstanding praise and reviews, including the following:- 

"With Grotesque: Monster Stories, Lee Murray proves she is a first-rate talent! These stories are fascinating, 

unexpected, and scary as hell!" - Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Rage and V-Wars.  

"Action, thrills, monsters, awesome!" - USA Today bestselling author, David Wood. 

"Keep calm and buckle up! From traveling to the dark side of exotic locales to visiting those familiar places you only thought you knew, author Lee Murray flexes her talent and range in this debut collection." - Rena Mason, award winning author of The Evolutionist and East End Girls. 

 "Murray's tales run the gamut of the horror spectrum, from horrifying to terrifying to heartbreaking. There is a story for everyone in this wonderful collection." - Tom Deady, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Haven. 

"It has been said creating is a path of immortality; Murray's engaging tales bring us into the dream time of imagination, mixing her unique dark stories and the Maori culture to create a collection existing outside of time, taking us with it." - Linda D. Addison, award-winning author and HWA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. 

"Murray's formidable imagination is laid bare here, presenting a dizzying array of monsters from around the world - leaping effortlessly from ancient reanimated soldiers in the Loire Valley, to Maori demons, to horrors even closer to home: the monsters within our own families." - Aaron Sterns, Wolf Creek 2, Wolf Creek: Origin
