In the review, the author establishes a deep relationship with Stephen Graham Jones' works over the last two decades. Highlighting 'The Buffalo Hunter Hunter' as a standout piece, the book is presented through the lens of a diary from 1912, belonging to Arthur Beaucarne, a Lutheran pastor. It chronicles violence and massacres while weaving in elements of Blackfeet culture and history. The supernatural aspects amplify the narrative, creating a blend of history and horror that exemplifies Jones' unique storytelling prowess.
"The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is Jones' masterpiece... The diary... becomes a detailed chronicle of several massacres, a bizarre transformation, countless battles, and endless violence."
"Jones centers Blackfeet culture and history, allowing magic to enter the story, which then leads to horror. The diary becomes an amalgamation of history, revenge, and the supernatural."
