What is Cargo Cult Press? It’s action based on the belief that the horror small press can and must do better. As traditional publishing moves more toward a boom and bust model that celebrates only the stratospheric bestseller and reduces costs by adopting a successive parade of digital delivery systems it is the small press that will provide a home for the talented mid-list writer and celebrate fine boutique handcrafted binding. From imported hand moulded paper to the finest Japanese silks Cargo Cult Press has endeavored and shall continue presenting great examples of the book as art.
We have to! We have to make sure they live up to the authors that we’re fortunate enough to publish. From Wrath James White’s trangressive hallucinatory prose to the true grit of Brian Knight’s Butch Quick story we’re right out in front taking the chances other publishers won’t and leading on quality.
If you haven’t bought a Cargo Cult book before now would be a great time to start. We’re having a hell of a time and would love for you to join us.
