It's time to unveil the cover for the forthcoming horror novel THE WHISPERING DEATH!
This
one is being released by British horror publisher Kensington Gore in Autumn. The e-book version may, in fact, be available in a few
weeks. The print version will follow in a couple of months. I am hoping
to be able to launch it at FantasyCon in Nottingham in October but I am
awaiting confirmation on that.
This is the scariest novel I have written in a while, and it's not for the faint-hearted as it has rather a lot of gruesome scenes. It also has a lot of references to LARP, to D&D, to Resident Evil and is an homage to geekiness in general. Oh, and it has zombies, too.
I am very excited about the release of this book. For those of you in the UK and not going to FantasyCon, I'm endeavouring to arrange another launch, in the South of England, to offer another opportunity to attend. As always, watch this space for further info.
In the meantime, here's a teaser in the form of a blurb for the novel.
Blurb for THE WHISPERING DEATH
Death comes to us all; life is the name of the game and everyone has a role to play.
When a group of live action role-players perform a ritual as part of a game, they unwittingly unleash an ancient evil that tears their world apart. The reanimated corpse of a long-dead magic user, corrupted by powerful dark magic, offers a promise of unlimited power, but at a terrible price. Having helped open this Pandora’s box, Mark and Elizabeth must race against time to close it again – before it’s too late.
