Another great review of Living After Midnight

We've got another great review for Living After Midnight: Hard and Heavy Stories, this time from Ginger Nuts of Horror.

He uses the phrase "heavy metal horror heaven," which is pure heaven for this co-editor. And he says "the hit rate is just perfect," and that he found it hard to single out favorites.

He calls Steven L. Shrewsbury's "Black Sabbath" an example of "how zombie stories should be written"; says "Spooky Tooth" by Randy Chandler is "excellent"; and especially lauds Kent Gowran's "Motorhead" as a "hard fast paced balls to the wall story," with a note that Kent's presence on a book's table of contents will guarantee future purchases.

I'm really glad to see that readers are responding to these Hard and Heavy Stories the way my co-editor Dave and I did when we first read them. It is my hope that the book inspires readers to check out more from these terrific authors.

Just as a reminder, Living After Midnight is still available for only $2.99 at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Diesel, Kobo, Sony, and Smashwords.

Living After Midnight reviewed and featured

The new horror/dark-fantasy anthology I co-edited with David T. Wilbanks, Living After Midnight: Hard and Heavy Stories, has received its first review from Dead in the South.

The reviewer strongly recommends it, and says that "It’s one of the things that make having an e-reader worthwhile." He also singles out Kent Gowran's story, "Motorhead," as a "great pulp crime story [with] adrenaline mixed with its ink."

We're also featured over on author Scott Nicholson's Indie Books Blog with a short interview. Be sure to check out more of both sites.

In addition to Amazon, Diesel, and Smashwords, Living After Midnight is also now available on Sony, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo.

Living After Midnight: Hard and Heavy Stories, edited by David T. Wilbanks and Craig Clarke (hard rock and heavy metal inspired anthology of dark fantasy and horror stories)

I am very proud to say that my first book is now available — a project nearly two years in the making! See more below, beginning with Carrie Gowran's utterly awesome cover art, which perfectly encompasses the anthology's hard-rock and dark-fiction aspects.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN HEAVY MUSIC INSPIRES DARK FICTION?

Living After Midnight: Hard and Heavy Stories consists of six horror and dark-fantasy stories inspired by some of the greatest hard-rock and heavy-metal bands in that music’s long and influential history. Each author was invited to submit a short story or novella inspired by the band of his choice.

You're sure to be impressed by the half-dozen diverse tales they came up with. The set list is as follows:

“Spooky Tooth” by Randy Chandler
“Iron Maiden” by Matthew Fryer
“Black Sabbath” by Steven L. Shrewsbury
“Judas Priest” by David T. Wilbanks
“Motorhead” by Kent Gowran
“Slayer” by L.L. Soares

An original lineup indeed. Grab a copy now for only $2.99 because you’ll not want to pass up the chance to read six of the sharpest, savviest, hardest, and heaviest stories published this year.
