Shaun Hutson
interviewed by Cardinal Cox
With books like Slugs (1982), Spawn (1983) and Erebus (1983), Shaun Hutson emerged as a horror writer with a reputation for gratuitous sex and explicit violence (not to mention juvenile prose, lousy dress sense, amusing curly hair and a dubious penchant for heavy metal - Ed). Recently, his style has developed from a pseudo James Herbert into a kind of rabid Jack Higgins with a series of books starring IRA-hunter Sean Doyle of the Counter Terrorist Unit. In search of the man behind the pen, Cardinal Cox met Hutson while in Peterborough promoting his latest books, White Ghost (£5.99, pbk) and Lucy’s Child (£15.99, hbk).

Well for a start he's British, so I don't think he'd get as wide a following, and personally I find what I have read of his all a bit amateurish (not saying I could do any better, though!).
I'd much prefer Herbert over Hutson even if they do write slightly different sorts of horror

Still King, no one tells a story like him.
