Today, I'm starting a new series on Andrew's books, & this will on the French translations! We'll start way back at the very beginning with 1999's 'Lost Girls.' His debut novel, I love the green coloration & eerie woman figure on the cover!
Thanks to Auryn for suggesting I share the French editions!

Def take a look! Not sure if it's sold out or not, but Abebooks currently has the other edition listed for sale!

So, he did two different official signed runs - both with 'William.' One was a limited through Goldsboro & one was a bookplate for the UK hardcover. As well he signed books at two different events & at the book launch in Toronto. I've included images of the two official signed editions.

Threads of Ash: South by SH Cooper

Perfect mix of fantasy & horror ✔️
Unexpected companions ✔️
Expansive mythology ✔️
Gripping action ✔️

This novella is a phenomenal throwback to the 80s sword & sworcery world's told with a steady & pristine hand!

TERRIFY YOUR TABLET IS TODAY!
All six of these books are only 99c!
Head to Horrorsmith Publishing & grab them & so many, many more!!

Steve Stred @stevestred.bsky.social · 5d

The last of the Portuguese releases of Andrew's to share is this edition of 'The Killing Circle.' The cover does a great job of highlighting that this book follows a writer, while also suggesting the isolation aspect of writing. Such a great packaging for this one.

Steve Stred @stevestred.bsky.social · 5d

TOMORROW! I have these six books featured in Horrorsmith Publishing's Terrify Your Tablet! One day only - a BUNCH of books will be on salw at 99c or free! Mine will be 99c so grab 'em all! Sign up at the Horrorsmith website to get the details!

This novel is a page-turner that will grab you & not let go! And that afterword!

Without Condition by Sonora Taylor
Teenage angst ✔️
True love? ✔️
Rural setting ✔️
Morbid mementos ✔️

This novel is part love story, part the lengths some will go to fulfill their desires, and it's 100% phenomenal!

The second-to-last Portuguese release of Andrew's work I'm sharing is the stunning Dark Side edition of 'The Demonologist.' Though the exterior is simple & elegant, the Gustave Dore Dante inspired illustrations within are what takes this one to another level. Gorgeous.

Steve Stred @stevestred.bsky.social · 8d

I've grown as a writer & I'd say I'm more confident with the execution of this one than I ever thought I could be. What the future holds with this book we'll never know, but my fingers are crossed because this book is very, very special. To me at least.

A year ago I started writing a novel 'unlike' anything I'd tackled before. Though there're elements familiar to readers, this one's a different beast. Working through six drafts with Kodie has been a phenomenal experience.
