IT’S ALWAYS HUNGRYTeddy Doucet is a quiet man. The residents of Fairview know him well, but he keeps to himself. On the one-year anniversary of his mother’s death, Teddy wakes up outside the local cemetery, filthy, confused, but not alone. The toad sits imperious on his head. It refuses to be removed and demands to be fed. At first – in loneliness and grief – Teddy takes comfort in the presence of this alien companion, but the Toad’s appetites grow stronger and more perverse with each passing day. As Teddy is dragged deeper into the horror one thing becomes the Toad will never be satisfied. Readers on Goodreads have this to say about “If Toadhead had appeared in the pulps of the fifties and sixties it would be a classic by now”“One of my reads for the year, I will definitely search out more of Lyall’s work”“Channeling a vibe akin to early 80's Stephen King” “Toadhead is gloriously nuts, gory, scary and unnerving”“Part Roald Dahl, part Texas Chainsaw Massacre”“This story feels like it was written by a horror fan for fans of horror fiction”“Warning, best not to read while eating!”
