A Midnight Clear
Paperback | Kindle
By Sam Hooker, Alcy Leyva, Laura Morrison, Cassondra Windwalker, Dalena Storm, Seven Jane
Publisher: Black Spot Books, an imprint of Vesuvian Media Group
Release Date: November 5, 2019

‘Tis the season, folks. This is the first holiday book I am reviewing for this year and I am quite sure it will not be my last. A Midnight Clear is a small anthology from Black Spot Books that focuses on less-than-cheery yuletide tales that will not necessarily horrify you, but they are certainly not going to wish you a Merry Christmas, either. But, and I say this without reservation, between the six short stories, it will entertain the crap out of you.

Kindle Deal: ‘Peril In The Old Country’ by Sam Hooker For Only $.99
  |  @   |  

Tomorrow sees the release of Soul Remains, Book 2 of Sam Hooker‘s Terribly Serious Darkness series. If you haven’t read the first book (and I recommend that you do), and you want to catch up, the Kindle of Book 1, Peril In The Old Country, is on sale all this week for only $.99!

From my review of the first book:

“Darker than the Douglas Adams universe, but lighter than Game Of Thrones, Peril In The Old Country hooks you in with its intriguing world-building, compelling characters, fantastical elements, interesting twists on the supernatural, and perfectly absurd dark humor.”

Definitely grab the Kindle for only 99 cents while you can and then move right along to Book 2, which is only $5.99 for the Kindle (order now).

Peril In The Old Country
Terribly Serious Darkness Book 1
Paperback | Kindle
By Sam Hooker
Publisher: Black Spot Books
Release date: June 5, 2018

You would think that in a place where swear words conjure goblins, cannibals live in the neighboring nation, and blood-drained murder victims are turning up, that paperwork would be the least of your worries. But in Sam Hooker‘s absurdly humorous fantasy tale Peril In The Old Country, over-anxious accountant Sloot Peril’s life is turned upside down after he revises a coworker’s disastrously written report and is suddenly propelled into an aristocratic world of adventure, intrigue, murder plots, double-crossing, and much more.
