ARC for Tom

ARC signups are live for "Tom" - book two in the Nightmares series!

Best described as "The Thing" meets the Salem Witch trials … the story of a boy and a monster he encounters in a town paralyzed by fear and hysteria. Early feedback has been very encouraging.

Tom

I'm thrilled to reveal the cover for "Tom" - the second story in the Nightmares series!

"Tom" is best described as "The Thing" meets the Salem Witch trials. It's the story of a boy and a monster he encounters in a town paralyzed by fear and hysteria.

Cover illustration: Dominik Broniek.

Cool idea. I’d be down to chat books! I tend toward horror and the darker side of fantasy and sci-fi.

Death Sketch has 30 ratings on Goodreads!

Check it out. Book #2 is right around the corner and it will be twice as good (and twice as long).
