"Reading Von Stark’s prose is like watching Shaun White skate a half-pipe; she rockets out sentences in looping digressions of stream-of-consciousness to the gnarly edge of spinning off into the void of irrelevance, then just powers it back to the spine of the narrative like she's got it on a fucking tractor-beam. Truly breathtaking!" ~ Daniel Knauf, creator, Carnivàle (HBO), producer-writer, The Blacklist (NBC)
Deeply strange, disorienting and dreamlike,THE WIDOW'S GAME is a thriller unlike any other; Von Stark blurs lines between fact and fiction, breaking the rules, extending a long middle finger to conventional narrative and sculpting one hell of a weird literary world. Whatever she is...there's no one else doing what she does.
- Chris Alexander, Editor in Chief, Fangoria Magazine
"Maddie Von Stark's work crackles with energy, passion, poetry, and take-no-prisoners badass beauty: it's raw unchained prose delivered with millennial wit and fury, and threaded with soulful style. Her voice is unique and sometimes startling in its deft and haunting perceptions. It's going to be very interesting to watch this girl mature as an artist and all-around creative force. I'm bringing popcorn." Craig
Spector, Author, The Light at the End
