You are all in for one hell of a summer! We have two amazing novellas’s on the docket and we are happy to reveal the cover for one – 30 to 50 Feral Hogs by Dayna Ingram with a fabulous cover by the legendary Tom Bagley.
The road to perdition is paved with feral hogs.
At least, that’s what Parker Eriksen expected when she joined the feral hog hunts of Hekla Lake. She would bury herself in the lonely mountain town, and dole out self-punishment to atone for her disastrous past by bloodying her knuckles against the hides of America’s most dangerous invasive species. Maybe drink herself to death while she was at it, before she had to make any decisions about her future.
But when an unseasonable snow storm cuts the town off from the world, the feral hogs start fighting back—and they aren’t pulling punches. If she wants to survive, Parker will have to revive the parts of herself she’s entombed, and confront more than a simple be-tusked ecological threat. She’ll need to confront *herself*, and what it means to stop hiding and start fighting.

We are so pleased to announce that RJ Joseph’s fabulous collection Hell Hath No Sorrow like a Woman Haunted has made the final ballot for the Bram Stoker® Awards – specifically, as an award nominee for Superior achievement in a Fiction Collection!
The Black women in these tales are women we all know. The mothers, wives, business owners, creatives, and more, that we see in everyday life. They perform the impossible and hold all ends together.
Sometimes, they’re an open book, their stories written in the beloved lines of their faces and the varied bodies they wear with pride or weariness.
Other times, their secrets squirm beneath the surface, aching for release and discovery while beckoning others to lean in. They whisper the horror of their predicaments, closer to home than you realize. These Black women are more than we know. They’re also victims, monsters…and often, a little of both.
“A look across the room that tells you you’re not alone in your Otherness. A caress from a blade. A book full of stories to make you feel profoundly unsettled. Hell Hath No Sorrow like a Woman Haunted is a superb collection that mixes smart, complex narratives about who we are with fast, bloody hardcore horror. Don’t miss it.” – Gabino Iglesias, author of The Devil Takes You Home

Welcome to the Fifth Terrace in the famed Purgatorio, where you will atone for your incorrigible greed with your fellow Penitents, languishing in sight of gold forever out of reach.
In this collection of dark needful tales, an unusual door grants riches for an unexpected price, bikini clad thieves make the score of a lifetime at ravenous cost, an expensive mistress gets what’s coming to her, it’s all fun and games until the Hare kills the Hound, a family bound rock star longs for life he once led, memories are worth a terrible price, and a pair of grifters plunder a haunted gold mine.
You can never be too rich, and Chris Marrs, Taija Morgan, Chris Patrick Carolan, Lindsay Thomas, Shane Kroetsch, Sarah L. Pratt and Robert Bose will tantalize you with promises of wealth beyond the nightmares and poetry of Avarice.
“Terrace V: Penitent’s Gold is a golden goose of wicked, timely, and (literally) skin-crawling tales. Nothing blinds us quite like greed, and this bevy of wildly talented and wholly original voices remind us of the hidden costs buried deep within anything we may desire. A price paid with an altogether different kind of currency, each greedily-spun story poses the only question that should ever count: Can you afford it?” – P.J. Vernon, author of Bath Haus and When You Find Me
