About this Author
Reviews
"Kriek's inky drawings fit the dark tone of these harsh tales of homicides, self-defense killings, and unjust executions. In no cases do Kriek's variants displace the song, but they possess their own moody emotional power."
"With relatively straightforward storytelling and simple, yet effective reveals that often render the murderer the most sympathetic character, Kriek's chapters are perfect realizations of these ballads. A quick but lingering read, In the Pines deserves to be appreciated with its source music echoing hauntingly in the background."
