Posted on by Megan

The Metanaut is live on Goodreads and ready to be added to your TBR shelf!

The book comes out on November 18th, and it’s a supernatural thriller about a scientist who must work with a psychic to defeat a deadly paranormal anomaly in the California Redwoods. Think Michael Crichton meets Fringe!

What’s The Metanaut About?

Scientist Anja Aura Copenhagen thinks that belief in the paranormal is absurd. Which makes her the last person who should be summoned to the California Redwoods to resolve a so-called paranormal anomaly.

They’re saying the anomaly is connected to strange events on a college campus and in maternity wards across the country—defying every law of nature Anja has ever known. But if true, it means the danger it poses is spreading.

But really, how could it be true? And what do they expect Anja to do about it? There’s no such thing as the paranormal.

Or is there?

For readers who love the scientific skepticism of Michael Crichton and the paranormal investigation of Fringe… How do you fight a force you don’t believe in? Get the book and find out!

The Corbin Kohl Adrift In Hell Paperback is Here!

Posted on by Megan

The fun low-fantasy mystery Corbin Kohl Adrift In Hell is now available in paperback, and you can get it right here.

Who’s Corbin?

Corbin Kohl is in Hell.

At least, he thinks he is. With the scorching heat, the fiery Pit at the center of the City, and his new, unpaid gig for so-called “Management,” it seems like a solid guess.

Corbin’s first assignment involves a Victor, one of Management’s most wanted. Unfortunately, the rascal has powerful abilities Management never bothered to mention. Pursuing him will demand more from Corbin than an average “Twister service” can set right. 

Still, for a guy who just wants to get home again, this hellish assignment presents an opportunity. Management has secrets. But more importantly, it hides vulnerabilities. And Corbin’s first assignment might provide a clue to getting out of this infernal place. 

Then again, it’s kinda fun here. And this might be the first time in years that Corbin has felt like himself.

Hang out with Corbin Kohl in a place that might be Hell—except it’s awfully fun.

For fans of Jim Butcher’s light-hearted side and those who would love a Stephanie Plum-style adventure in Hell, this book is for you. Grab your copy and join the fun!

A supernatural thriller trilogy I’m enjoying

Posted on by Megan

I’m liking this new author I recently discovered, although I have no idea why it took me so long to come across him. He’s been publishing books since before I was born, and apparently he writes what I like to read: supernatural thrillers. I like dark fantasy and horror-lite, too. Basically anything with a dark fantastical element set in the real world or a close-to-the-real world. That’s my jam.

So I went searching for a supernatural thriller a couple weeks ago, and F. Paul Wilson’s Panacea came up. It’s about a medical examiner with experience in ethnobotany who’s paired with a secretive bodyguard and hired by a sick billionaire to hunt down a magical cure-all. It wasn’t quite as supernatural-esque as I’d been wanting, but it was great in its own right. Kind of had that The Da Vinci Code feel. You know, the hunt, the search for a secret? Good stuff.

The second book, which I just finished, is called The God Gene. It’s a touch more scifi thriller than supernatural thriller, but it, too, was great in its own right. This one has more of a Jurassic Park feel, except with primates instead of dinosaurs. In it, the medical examiner and the guy she’s paired with have to find the guy’s brother, who went missing after his rare primate died. It was good.

I’m starting the third book right now. It’s called The Void Protocol. In the first two books, the secretive guy has this life theory that there are these vast intelligences that throw metaphorical wrenches into the world’s cogs to see how it’ll break down, and I’m keen to see if this story delves into those intelligences further, because that would be leaning more toward the supernatural, and it would be AWESOME. I have no idea though. I haven’t read the book blurb. I’m going in cold. So we shall see…

The Girl, Incorrupted Paperback is LIVE!

Posted on by Megan

If you prefer paperbacks to hardcovers and ebooks, then I have good news. The GIRL, INCORRUPTED paperback is available now!

Here’s the cover:

The paperback cover for Girl, Incorrupted: a love-horror story. On the back cover it reads the following: I would have done anything for Andy. But the night I vandalized the starlet’s poster, I began wondering how to make Andy do anything for me... Daphne James’s boyfriend is supposed to propose tonight. Instead he tells her he’d marry a girl like the vaudeville starlet they see on a theater poster. Daphne’s never heard of the woman, so she checks out her show.  But as soon as she enters the misty, peach-scented L’Aornum Theatre and glimpses the flawless Fausten Cotter, Daphne’s insecurities multiply—but so do the mysteries surrounding the starlet. Daphne’s warned to stay away, but she can’t. So when the starlet’s theater announces an amateur vaudeville competition, Daphne enters to impress her boyfriend—but also to discover the secret of the starlet's appeal.  Unfortunately, the starlet has more secrets than Daphne can fathom: She’s an incorrupt corpse. She takes her own interest in Daphne. And Daphne won’t like what the starlet has planned. CAUTION: Do not read this book if you’re not ready to fully give in to a monster type you’ve never seen before. Tropes will be subverted, corpses will rot, and hearts will be broken. It’s a love-horror story, after all. You have been warned.

Here’s the back cover copy:
