For the Weekend 8

 This weekend I am offering a bit of a smorgasbord for your reading pleasure. A little something for everybody.


MACABRE


If the weird is your thing, or the paranormal, or horror, if you will, then look no further. One of my favorite authors, Crispian Thurlborn, has what you’re looking for!


Exit by Crispian Thurlborn is a fine tale of the bizarre, the uncanny, the weird, and, yes, horror. The slow burn and subtle kind of horror that doesn’t fully hit you until sometime after you’re done reading the book.


You can get Exit on Amazon.


I’ve become a big fan of occult detectives over the past year or so. And guess what? There is a magazine devoted to the occult detective. Its former name is The Occult Detective Quarterly, and the new name is Occult Detective Magazine.


If you’re into the occult, the paranormal, the weird — and you like mysteries as well — then Occult Detective Magazine is for you.


It’s available at Amazon.


CHRISTIAN FICTION


Do you like YA? Strong female characters? A faith that produces tough, resilient people? Then give CJ Peterson’s Strength From Within a try. Once again, you can find it at Amazon.


ROMANCE


Perhaps you’re looking for romance with a dash of mystery and angsty stuff dealing with PTSD, then NE Brown’s Carson Chance, PI series just might be your cup of tea. Check it out on Amazon.


POST-APOCALYPTIC


I’m a big fan of the cozy catastrophe — that version of the post-apocalyptic novel where the survivors try to create a better world than the one that was destroyed.


One of the finest writers of the cozy catastrophe today is Matthew Cormack.


Ganbaru is set in his Piranha Pandemic world. It’s a classic tale of good vs evil. The characters are dynamic and the situation he paints is totally realistic.


Get Ganbaru on Amazon.


SCIENCE FANTASY


Erik Ga Bean writes books that border on the surreal, with a delightful touch of whimsy.


You really shouldn’t ignore his Trifle Airship. It’s a delight and you can get it on Smashwords.



That ought to keep you going until next time.


Comments are always welcome! And until next time, happy reading!
