The Fovea Experiments by MJ Mars hits a rare sweet spot between commercial horror and elevated, character-driven storytelling. It’s accessible and fast-paced, but never shallow; deeply invested in emotional realism without sacrificing suspense or momentum. - Steven Pajak

Remember the late 90's and early 2000's? Remember those horror movies that came out during that time and that wild, frenetic energy they all had? MJ is the literary equivalent to that. There's a spunkiness to it all that makes it so much fun, and yet the building dread is palpable with each and every page. You're on a trip with these characters, a trip to no place good, and yet there's an undeniable enjoyment to it all. - Blaine Daigle, author of The Broken Places and Ashes of August Manor

“The Fovea Experiments is loaded with conspiracies, tension, and tremendous horror, but it’s grounded by dynamic characters all dealing with various forms of “down on their luck,” and MJ takes great care to merge these varying features into a book that will both haunt you, and place you squarely in the middle of it. You’ll attach yourself to these people, feel their torment. With crackling prose and whip-smart dialogue, this is MJ at her finest. Just don’t close your eyes.” - Gage Greenwood, author of Bunker Dogs
