Darkness on the Horizon by Christopher Renna

About Darkness on the Horizon by Christopher Renna

All Morgan Fischer wants is to graduate high school and escape small-town Colby, Pennsylvania. Since the death of his mother, childhood friends have become his tormentors, and his father has become an absent and neglectful alcoholic. When lack of food forces Morgan to earn money, he develops a friendship with the new residents in town, Ava and Jonathan. They give Morgan the loving attention and guidance he doesn’t receive at home. As their bond deepens, he learns the older siblings have a dark secret. And because of his love for them, it’s a secret he promises to keep.

During the summer, a series of murders have rattled the small town. The arrival of a mysterious stranger from Ava and Jonathan’s past threatens danger. When the threat becomes too great, Morgan must alter his plans for the future and confront his fears. Thrust into a world of deception and murder, can Morgan summon the courage to survive?

There’s No Such Thing As Vampires by Heather Masterson

About There’s No Such Thing As Vampires by Heather Masterson

Casey was the girl who got away. Twice.
The first time, she got away because he was afraid.
The second time, she disappeared.
When the police found her car abandoned and bloody on the side of the road, Joe thought he had lost her forever.
Six months later, Joe went camping, was nearly murdered, found Casey in the woods, and then went a little insane.
It seemed like the thing to do at the time.
—–
All Ryan had to do was fly to Colorado and do a security assessment on a paranoid old lady who’d started seeing boogeymen in the bushes. She wouldn’t tell his employers what the problem was. Not over the phone, anyway.
She told the neighbors that the businessman who’d purchased her dead husband’s property was a vampire.
It was supposed to be an easy job, but when Ryan arrived too late to prevent the old lady’s murder, everything started going wrong.
Vampires don’t exist, but some kind of monster was out there. The least Ryan could do was look into it.
It seemed like a good idea at the time.

An absolute wonderful read. Had me guessing from the beginning.

Excellent fast paced story with an unseen twist at the end.

WOW!!!… what another brilliant book which is truly horrifying and
twisted, this put’s another twist to the meaning of “TEAM BUILDING” at
work.

Makes you wonder about the people you work with.

Escape! is one of the most unique, gruesome, and horrifying books I’ve ever read, and I loved every minute of it!

Great thriller with a lot of twists and turns. Kept me on the edge of my seat.

So intense I couldn’t stop until I reached the end.

If you enjoy Stephen King or James Herbert, then you’ll enjoy this book too.

Escape! Is scary because something like this could really happen and people are really that sick!

Escape! is so thrilling that I stayed up late and just kept on reading until I couldn´t keep my eyes open anymore.

You just can’t put this book down, a real page turner.

Iain takes the latest popular entertainment experience “the escape room” and twists it turning it into another page turner, keeping you trapped in the pages until you escape at the end.

An intense joyride filled with a solid shock and awe factor that will keep you turning pages.

Spine tingling from the first line to the mind-blowing conclusion! A must read for thrill seekers.

Will never, ever, do an escape room after this!

A great read – excellent plot and another one to keep me up well past my bedtime!

Castles

About Castles:

When Maggie was six, she hid from desert storms under the sink where the Comet and Windex were kept. Now twenty, she welcomes the storms. Maggie has been abused, torn apart by the sins of others and constantly feels as if she is living on the verge of some grand epiphany, perhaps passed down through her Grandmother, perhaps given to her by God.

Then again, she may just be insane.

Clinically, it’s called schizophrenia and manifests itself through delusions, hallucinations, and/or disorganized behavior. It can persist for years and may worsen without treatment. Socially, it’s termed “unacceptable behavior.” Maggie doesn’t know if her latest actions are the only bricks left to her castle in the sky, but she hopes you’ll understand if they’re not.

How far would you go to build a castle in the sky?

How to Make Money from YouTube: An Essential Guide to Start Making Money on YouTube

About How to Make Money from YouTube: An Essential Guide to Start Making Money on YouTube:

The internet is the only invention of humankind which has taken the right to be heard away from big corporations and their exclusivity contract clauses and – for the first time in history – placed it solely in the hands of the people. While podcasts and blogs have played a large part in the onslaught of individuals taking to the internet to release their intellectual content, no other website has played so singularly unforgettable a part in this process as YouTube.

Started by three ex-PayPal employees in 2005, YouTube quickly became the world’s largest video-sharing website, and soon became the home and launch pad of many of the world’s next-gen multimedia celebrities. By 2006, Google acknowledged the increasing business relevance of YouTube and purchased it from the founders. YouTube launched its Partner Program in May 2007, which allowed creators to get paid for their viral content. By the following year, many viral creators were earning well into six figures — enabling them to successfully quit their day jobs.

This book is designed to provide you with step-by-step guidance to making money from YouTube through its ad placements and partnership programs, and will even help you figure out the kind of content which you’d like to create. So if you’re ready to make some money in a really fun way, then let’s get started already!

The Blood of Cowards

About The Blood of Cowards:

In this tale of gothic horror, the vampire, Lazarus Kalon, is on his way back to Atlanta to liberate his treasure before the city falls to Sherman’s army. It is then, suffering from a prolonged thirst in the Appalachians, that Lazarus encounters three rebel deserters. As Lazarus closes in on the deserters, intending only to satisfy his thirst, he is soon overcome by a supernatural awareness that one of these soldiers may be worthy of the immortal gift.
“The Blood of Cowards is an impressive example of a successful short story, where each word is carefully chosen and each sentence fits perfectly together to compose a harmonious and powerful story.”
“The story unfolds with a vivid description of the surroundings, which makes you feel like standing right next to the vampire Lazarus, hearing the gunfire and smelling the stench of war, but also perceiving the beauty of the countryside.”

Ghost Drums

Ghost-DrumsAbout Ghost Drums:

In this tale of gothic horror, the vampire, Lazarus Kalon, is intent upon stealing the power of a shape shifter, a shaman of the Kwakiutl people. Yet, as Lazarus moves in on the shaman and the Kwakiutl village, another supernatural being comes into play, a demon with his own agenda for the Kwakiutl and who is very aware of Lazarus’ presence and intent.

“Matt Cole writes shorts with a very non-sparkling vampire named Lazarus. His writing has strong, dark and solid allegory, balancing the traditional vampire myth with Native British Columbian myths. Having grown up a bit south of there in the Pacific Northwest, I appreciated it even more. Totem poles are more than a thing of wonder and beauty in the middle of the park, they have huge symbolic meaning within the Native religion.” -Goodreads.com
