Halloween’s a-coming!
This time of year is my favorite – and not only because of
Halloween. That’s like icing on the cake. Autumn is the fading season. The time
when shadows grow longer. The boards in the house creak.
The wind sighs a
mournful tune.
And monsters come out to play.
We like to be scared. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because
we think we can control our own environment. Stay safe in our cozy little
bubbles. Be terrified by stories but feel secure knowing it can’t happen to us.
Not really.
Never mind the strange noise you just heard. It’s only your
imagination, after all.
Or maybe not.
In honor of the season, I’m proud to present Demon in the Basement. It’s on sale
right now for only .99.
Thirty-two stories. Some long, some short. Some filled with
irony, others with dark humor. More that will send you to hide under the
covers, wondering if something’s coming for you next. I hope you enjoy them. I
know I enjoyed writing them.
Oh, and one more thing before I forget… check the locks on
your doors. You’ve been warned.
Thirty-two stories, including a novelette by the same title,
to keep you awake at night.
A time-traveling Chevy, an ancient church of evil, a house
possessed by black magic. Stories to fill you with dread, draw you into places
you'd rather not go, smack you in the face with ironic possibilities.
Meet the monsters of myth, the creatures that lurk under
your bed, the phantoms you thought didn't exist. Travel to the real Atlantis,
strap in for the Bermuda Triangle. Terror lurks in the ocean, while an asteroid
hides a secret.
Leave a nightlight on before you go to sleep. Something's
coming for you.
Where to buy:
Woo Hoo.
ReplyDeleteTwo books by you to read when the skinny one goes on holidays.
Two, because I have showed astonishing willpower and left Death and Chronos unsampled.
DeleteEC - I hope you have a gallon of Jezebel's special blend saved up for your reading holiday too! :)
DeleteCongratulations, River!! Perfect timing.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alex! Halloween is my favorite "season" of the year. :)

ReplyDeleteI love scary books, so I will check it out. Who needs sleep anyway?
Jay - Awesome and thanks! Sleep is overrated. ;)
DeleteHalfway through, River. Please let Jezebel know I could also use some of her "special blend."
ReplyDeleteRon - How wonderful! Thank you! Jezebel is more than happy to supply you with as many gallons as you need... although I'd be careful of the special blend, if I were you. ;)
DeleteGrats on your release, River! I'll go pick up my copy. :)
ReplyDeleteLoni - How awesome and thank you! Happy reading. :)
