Looks like the print version Glass House is on sale right now for around 11 bucks on the evil site! Might as well snag that and Cancer Eats the Heart for a double billing of terror!

Also, this will give you the taste of my narration style for the upcoming audiobook version!

So, for Cancer Eats the Heart's book birthday, I read the prologue on Youtube. Get a taste for how terrifying this story truly is.
