Just wrote my 195th short story, a somber piece called "The Crow that Spoke in a Voice like Autumn". It's for an upcoming anthology called INTO THE DEEP DARK WOODS. More details as soon as I get editor approval.

#Booksky Spooktacular 2025 Day 8: If you want your eldritch horror blended with action-packed epic fantasy, @jonathanmaberry.bsky.social’s Kagen the Damned trilogy is for you! It starts off at a run and never lets up, effortlessly balancing dread and fun while allowing characters room to grow.

Cover for Kagen the Damned by Jonathan Maberry, depicting a bloody dagger surrounded by a ring of roses (not pictured: Lovecraftian monstrosities)
