Gabino Iglesias!
One of the panels we’re really looking forward to this April brings together three acclaimed writers who work in the horror/thriller genre. Gabino Iglesias’s most recent novel, the brilliant The Devil Takes You Home, is a jewel of a noir thriller, described by Chuck Wendig as a “ragged-edged bloody bullet-hole of a book.” We can’t wait to welcome Gabino to Unbound and hear him discuss his work!
