The Buffalo Hunter Hunter (First Edition, Signed)
JONES, Stephen Graham. The Buffalo Hunter Hunter. London: Titan Books, 2025.
Octavo. Original publisher's cloth. Unclipped dust jacket. 443, [i] pp. First UK edition, full number line to copyright page. Special edition, signed by the author to the front endpapers.
The vampire novel has existed, in one form or another, for two centuries. From Polidori's The Vampyre through Le Fanu's Carmilla to Stoker's Dracula, and through Anne Rice's chronicles into modern literature, the vampire has remained a beloved figure. It has been many things along the way: a vehicle for anxieties about sexuality, about the foreign and the Other, about class and inheritance and the persistence of the past.
What it has not, until now, been is this: a Blackfeet revenge story set in 1912 Montana, in which the vampire is a Pikuni man named Good Stab, the buffalo hunters are the true monsters, and the horror is inseparable from the documented history of what the United States did to the Indigenous peoples of the northern plains. Stephen Graham Jones — himself of Blackfeet descent, the author of The Only Good Indians and My Heart Is a Chainsaw and more than thirty other books — has spent his career doing things with genre fiction that genre fiction did not know it could do. The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is, by wide critical consensus, his masterpiece. NPR called it a horror masterpiece outright; Vulture declared it the closest thing we have to horror's Moby-Dick; The Washington Post described it as a master class in voice. It was selected as one of the New York Times's 100 Notable Books of 2025, chosen as a summer read by Barack Obama, and shortlisted for the Nebula, Bram Stoker, and Los Angeles Times Book Prize awards.
Fine. Impeccably preserved, presenting as new.
