Dark, soulful tales that haunt long after the last page.
Nordic Gods and Heroes by Padraic Colum My rating: 4 of 5 stars I talked our school district into ordering this book for my Mythology class. I certainly haven’t regretted it. We spend the second quarter of the semester class studying Norse mythology. This book is very accessible, even to the students who are dumped…
I am Legend and Other Stories by Richard Matheson My rating: 4 of 5 stars The book is a little slow in the middle, but overall it’s an excellent read. If all you know of the story is the Will Smith movie, you don’t know anything! Pick this up and read it. Be ready for…
If you’re like me, you know there’s nothing worse than the sound of your own voice being played back to you. Nonetheless, I offer you this interview of me by Rick Hipson for his Dark Bites site. Put on your boots, pull up a cow pie, and try not to laugh too hard at the…
For those who don’t know, about a year ago I went through the incredibly easy process of becoming an ordained minister through Universal Life Church, and followed it up by registering with the State of Oklahoma so that I can actually perform weddings (and baptisms and funeral services). So far, though, I haven’t conducted a…
A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin My rating: 5 of 5 stars I’m not sure what I can say about this book that hasn’t been said already. This book has everything fantasy readers want — epic proportions, sword fights, wars, political intrigue, dragons, family drama and, oh yeah, freakin’ zombies, or something close…
The Winter of Our Discontent by John Steinbeck My rating: 4 of 5 stars Not Steinbeck’s best work, but a very enjoyable read with a message that is even more relevant today than when he wrote it. I found the constant barrage of pet names Ethan used for his wife Mary to be silly and…
Ain’t it fantastic? This cover was done by Russell Dickerson. The artistic process amazes me, and he did this on a tight deadline. I couldn’t be more pleased with it. The book is scheduled to be released on Oct. 29, the full moon, by Graveside Tales Publishing.
I’m thrilled to announce that the first three books of The Werewolf Saga will be released in audio format by the end of 2012. Each volume is currently in production right now and will be available for download through Amazon.com, the iTunes Store, and Audible.com. Murdered by Human Wolves will likely be ready for release…
Yesterday the FedEx man dropped off a big box for me. I tore into it and found a bunch of copies of the U.S. trade paperback edition of After Obsession, the young adult paranormal romance written with Carrie Jones. What do you think of the cover? (It looks my scan wasn’t all that straight.) The paperback…
