Woke up to this awesome review of #Pyres from incredible folk horror writer & friend, Stephanie Ellis.
I was a bit nervy about Steph reading this one, as I knew she'd been local to the book's setting for a good few years, but it seems like the sense of place worked out ok! 🔥🔥🔥

So, I have this zombie apocalypse romance short. Like most zombie stories, it's not really about them. It’s about depression, isolation, immigrant experiences, and mistakes made. With some sex thrown in. People can grab Kick at the Darkness for $1.99: books2read.com/u/4Xrqqv

Have you ever read a sci-fi detective comedy narrated by a coffee machine robot? What about one that has 154 footnotes, a star from Publishers Weekly, and a "GET IT" verdict from Kirkus Reviews?

www.amazon.com/Great-Americ...

bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

www.audible.com/pd/The-Great...
Private detective Frank Harken could really, really use a cup of coffee. Can you blame him? His new case features a missing woman, a flaky client, a cranky security officer, a mysterious assassin, an overbearing mob boss, an ice-cold enforcer, and the best mini-golf the world has ever seen. Did we mention the fate of millions is at stake? “Stein delivers a madcap sci-fi take on the hard-boiled detective genre in this fun, near-future romp that’s chock-full of rapid-fire wit, tongue-in-cheek literary allusions, and playful futuristic absurdity… Stein keeps the stakes high and the laughs coming … Sure to appeal to fans of Douglas Adams, this zany, uproarious mystery is a constant delight.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Get ready for some super great fun! The Great American Deception is a hilarious (and deeply disturbing) voyage through a futuristic netherworld of caffeinated robots and diet pizza. Somewhere—possibly nowhere—Douglas Adams is sighing pleasurably with a combination of approval and afterlife indigestion.” —Gary Shteyngart, author of Little Failure and Lake Success “The Great American Deception is by far the most enjoyable novel told from the point of view of a futuristic coffee machine I have ever read!” —Ben Schwartz, actor and writer

Thanks for another #FridayReads, Gabino!
There's a chill in the air, and it runs deeper than just the turn of the season

Check out the book Craig DiLouie(!) called "a powerful Victorian adventure, rich in detail and set in a fully realized world ... A stunning debut!"

LINK: books2read.com/u/490zOw
Cover art for The Nightshade Cabal by Chris Patrick Carolan. Image shows a mail figured dressed in black, with his back to the viewer. A Victorian city scene in the background is shrouded in mist. Caption reads "Only the dead know the secrets of the Cabal..." A Crime Writers of Canada 2021 Awards of Excellence Finalist badge has been added. The first page of The Nightshade Cabal. Text Reads: HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA, 1881 "I’m telling you, Jonathon, these so-called stage magicians are nothing more than charlatans and hucksters of the highest order.” Isaac Barrow said, raising his voice to be heard over the din of the crowded Theatre Royale. "The act is nothing but mirrors and wires and other trickery making you think you've seen something you haven’t.” Inspector Jonathon Eddings chuckled heartily, shaking his head. "And I keep telling you, Barrow, being fooled is the whole point of the bloody show!” Fifteen years in Halifax had done little to blunt the edge of his thick Mancunian brogue. His friend’s retort failed to quell Barrow's annoyance. The inspector's invitation had had all the cordiality of a press gang. Eddings had bought the tickets to thank Barrow for his help with a recent investigation. He hadn’t skimped, either; they sat just three rows back of the orchestra pit. The notion of putting down hard-earned coin with the express intention of being hoodwinked by some sham of a magician struck Barrow as inordinately foolish. He knew of the occult and the dangers of flirting with its deadly secrets. Real magic being his stock-in-trade, he considered the pretend variety, popular on stage, mildly offensive at best. It was only on his friend's repeated insistence that he had finally, against his own better judgement, agreed to attend the performance.

Why I have problems marketing my book series:

🧚 There are Fairies, but not your typical Fairies.

🏹It's an epic fantasy but focuses on dialogue and character moments, not big battles and fight scenes.

🌙Large cast of mostly women.

🔆Ceremonial magic!

Got this picture of my youngest playing in a tree.

But seriously, if the horror you're reading doesn't have a mysterious, maybe alive, stained glass window in it, what are you even reading?
