""An effective and fast-paced story, Ask For Mercy's real strength lies in Abigail Jill Harding's opulent art. Mesmerizing throughout, she especially shines at detailing each monstrous apparition, a task she clearly relishes and one which nudges the book to an above average reading experience.""—Rue Morgue November/December 2018 print issue ""Richard Starkings delivers a grand-scale battle between good and evil, where the major players can switch sides at any moment.""—Villain Media ""Abigail Jill Harding captures the snow-filled landscapes with such wonderful elegance. Then Harding lets loose on the terror, designing these grotesque and disturbing monster.""—Villain Media “The story has that occult-horror feel to it while the images create the mood. Together they both pull you in. It’s a gem of a book.”—Techaeris
