Reviews
"It's kind of a more cynical version of  The Phantom Tollbooth  mixed with a game of Dungeons & Dragons from  Community  creator Dan Harmon's podcast  Harmontown ." --Wired , chosen as one of "This Summer's 14 Must-Read Books" " The Hike is Cormac McCarthy's Alice in Wonderland --gritty and terrifying but with deliriously surreal twists and turns. There's not a chapter that doesn't shock and surprise, and underneath it all is the levity and wit I've come to expect of Drew Magary's writing." --Jeffrey Cranor, New York Times bestselling cowriter of Welcome to Night Vale " The Hike is so much fun, has so much pure velocity, that I didn't realize until it was too late--what I thought was a drumbeat of excitement was actually the novel's secret, powerful heart. Magary's new book is a metaphysical thrill ride that will stay with me." --Charles Yu, author of How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe "Creepy. . . . Magary isn't shy about getting weird fast. . . . [He] even nails the ending with a Twilight Zone twist that would have Rod Serling nodding with approval. An eerie odyssey that would be right at home in the pages of the pulpy Warren comics." --Kirkus Reviews Praise for The Postmortal "An exciting page turner . . . Drew Magary is an excellent writer. This is his first novel but he tells the story masterfully. . . . The most frightening thing about The Postmortal is that this could really happen--it's not a supernatural story, but it's even more terrifying than zombie apocalypse." --Mark Frauenfelder, BoingBoing   "Unnerving. . . . An absorbing picture of dawning apocalypse . . . The Postmortal is a suitably chilling entry into the 'it's-the-end-of-the-world' canon." --The Austin Chronicle   "The first novel from a popular sports blogger and humorist puts a darkly comic spin on a science fiction premise and hits the sweet spot between Margaret Atwood and Kurt Vonnegut." --Ron Hogan, Shelf Awareness   " The Postmortal surprised me in a good way." --Michelle West, Fantasy & Science Fiction magazine   "Magary's vision of future technology and science is eerily realistic." --The New York Press, Praise for The Postmortal "An exciting page turner . . .

Magary isn't shy about getting weird fast. . . . [He] even nails the ending with a Twilight Zone twist that would have Rod Serling nodding with approval.

Synopsis
" The Hike just works. It's like early, good Chuck Palahniuk. . . . Magary underhands a twist in at the end that hits you like a sharp jab at the bell. . . . It's just that good." --NPR.org "A page-turner. . . . Inventive, funny. . . . Quietly profound and touching."-- BoingBoing From the author of The Postmortal , a fantasy saga unlike any you've read before, weaving elements of folk tales and video games into a riveting, unforgettable adventure of what a man will endure to return to his family When Ben, a suburban family man, takes a business trip to rural Pennsylvania, he decides to spend the afternoon before his dinner meeting on a short hike. Once he sets out into the woods behind his hotel, he quickly comes to realize that the path he has chosen cannot be given up easily. With no choice but to move forward, Ben finds himself falling deeper and deeper into a world of man-eating giants, bizarre demons, and colossal insects. On a quest of epic, life-or-death proportions, Ben finds help comes in some of the most unexpected forms, including a profane crustacean and a variety of magical objects, tools, and potions. Desperate to return to his family, Ben is determined to track down the "Producer," the creator of the world in which he is being held hostage and the only one who can free him from the path. At once bitingly funny and emotionally absorbing, Magary's novel is a remarkably unique addition to the contemporary fantasy genre, one that draws as easily from the world of classic folk tales as it does from video games. In The Hike , Magary takes readers on a daring odyssey away from our day-to-day grind and transports them into an enthralling world propelled by heart, imagination, and survival., " The Hike  just works.
