"Anything I would have written would have insulted these Kaiju authors and their flock of fans. The Big Bad Book of Kaiju is my Kaiju primer … a detailed road map into another world – go big or go home, because in the end it’s all Kaiju."
Steve Alten, author of The Meg


"Absolutely loved this collection of stories! Characters, pacing, thrills and chills and tons of fun!"
Heather Graham
