"The Buffalo Hunter Hunter" by Stephen Graham Jones is a historical fiction based on the Marias Massacre of 1870, where the US Army killed over 200 Blackfoot individuals. The book features horror elements, including vampires in an atmospheric setting. It centers around one of American history's tragic events. This novel, like Jones's previous works, is immersive and well-written with developed characters. It's reminiscent of "The Only Good Indians" but also original. The book provides representation of Indigenous perspectives on the colonization of America.

This book was so interesting and engaging to listen to. At times it is very gruesome but it adds context and depth to the experience. It is a vampire story like I have never read before. I would highly recommend.
