About this book

The Buffalo Hunter Hunter is a historical horror novel by Stephen Graham Jones that traces the life of a vampire haunting the fields of the Blackfeet reservation in search of justice. The narrative begins with the discovery of a diary written in 1912 by a Lutheran pastor, found hidden within a wall. The diary reveals a slow massacre connected to the deaths of 217 Blackfeet in the snow. The story unfolds through transcribed interviews with Good Stab, a Blackfeet man who recounts his unusual life across a series of confessional visits. The novel explores themes of religion, historical guilt, identity, and appetite. It has received multiple awards and recognitions, including the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a Novel, the Nebula Award for Best Novel, and the Locus Award for Horror. It was selected as one of The New York Times's 100 Notable Books of the Year and named a best book of the year by Time, The Washington Post, NPR, and other publications.
