Huge thanks to Konrad and everyone at the Springfield Greene County Public Library for bringing me and Sam Rebelein out for their Oh! The Horror! Series and all the wonderful folks who joined us for a lovely evening in Missouri. I had an absolute blast sharing the stage with @rebelsam94.bsky.social

Wishing @rebelsam94.bsky.social and GALLOWAY'S GOSPEL a very happy book birthday! I called it "a wild, bristling ride that would make Lovecraft blush" in my foggy blurb as pigs chewed on me. Full blurb in the replies.

#GallowaysGospel by @rebelsam94.bsky.social is clever, funny, sweet, sad, strange, and, most of all, scary, in both the immediate visceral and existential horrific senses. #BookSky #HorrorSky TY to #NetGalley, @wmmorrowbooks.bsky.social, & HarperAudio for the ARCs for my honest review here:

Galloway’s Gospel — CandiKat Horror

Galloway’s Gospel by Sam Rebelein is clever, funny, sweet, sad, strange, and, most of all, scary, in both the immediate visceral and existential horrific senses.

Cover for Robert Ford's BURNER. A woman's face is smack dab in the middle of the cover, the orange and red lighting behind her makes her appear on fire. Much of her face is covered by her out-of-control hair.

Cover for Stephen King's DOCTOR SLEEP. There's a woman bathed in red and wearing a black top hat looking at you from the center of the cover.

Cover for Nat Cassidy's WHEN THE WOLF COMES HOME. A gray wolf is barring its teeth at your from outside a window. DON'T LET IT IN.
