"UnAmerican Activities is more than a dark comedy. As delicious as the cast of characters are – the zombies, the gun-toting neo-Nazis and backwater hicks – it is way more than an assembly of genre-fiction staples. The prose is deft, delivering an unexpected payload. And the ending, such as it is – with no neat tying-up of threads, and the final notes being genuinely unsettling - pulls the comfort blanket away from the reader. It’s a masterstroke; and UnAmerican Activities is a little masterpiece..." - Tamim Sadikali reviews UnAmerican Activities by James Miller
