The Horror Of The Unmentionables
Dark Fuse, have announced details of some new and upcoming books, from some very talented authors.
Before evil had a name, there was LILITH.
Something has come aboard the U.S. Navy’s newest state-of-the-art super carrier, the USS Gerald Ford, something supernatural and as ancient as time itself. And it’s taking over the crew one by one.
Reporter Hunter Singleton and his wife Lisa, guests invited aboard to witness a routine training mission off the coast of North Carolina, soon learn that the CIA is onboard as well, and that some of the ship’s crew are acting irrationally, even violently. When an unexpected monster hurricane slams New York, the ship rushes to assist in the aftermath, and Hunter, Lisa and the crew are faced with the terrifying realization that whatever has come aboard the Ford must be stopped before it is set free on the streets of Manhattan.
But how do they fight something beyond human comprehension? How do they kill something that may not even be alive?
The clock is ticking…and Time itself is running out.
Hidden deep beneath its landfill lair of trash and filth, a strange new organism has come to life. When an accidental fire drives it out, the mysterious creature escapes across the drought-blasted Kansas prairie and finds the home of elderly hoarder Anna Grish. In desperate need of shelter, it burrows in, concealed amidst the squalor and mess.
When Adult Protective Services force Anna to vacate her junk-riddled home, she moves in with her son and his family. But there is something wrong with Anna, something more than her declining mental condition and severe hoarding disorder. Something sinister has taken hold of her, and it’s not only getting stronger, it’s spreading.
Amidst the wide-open Kansas plains, with endless blue sky above and flat, open vista stretching from one horizon to the next, there is nowhere to hide from…THE HOARD.
They come at night.
A stranger staggers out of the wilderness under the cover of a blizzard and stumbles into a diner full of people. He collapses in the entryway, unzips his jacket, and allows the object hidden inside to fall out. Screaming commences.
Four old college buddies embark upon their annual elk hunting trip into the Rocky Mountains. This promises to be their last, for the passage of time is as merciless and unpredictable as the Colorado weather. And they’re not alone.
There are other hunters in the mountains, stalking game of a different breed. They know exactly what they’re doing, because they’ve been hunting in these woods for a long, long time. And no one ever survives to betray their existence.

Quickly? Ahhhh! OkayMovies: Brainstorm with Christopher Walken, great movie! Another ChristopherWalken film Scotland P.A. and rather hilarious. And last but not least,probably The Stand 4 part miniseries. Now, books. Probably Road Work by StephenKing, I am Legend by Richard Matheson, and Blindsight by Peter Watts.
GNOH– A lot of folk blame the likes of Stookie Stackhouse on the current defangingof the Vampire, but I personally think the rot started with Buffy, Much as Iloved Buffy and Angel, I do think they have a lot to answer for?
Hmm. Definitely I amLegend. I was a big fan of Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles, read the first fivebooks in a row over and over in highschool. Salem’s Lot. Dracula, of course. Ifind myself particularly fond of vampire novels with a science fiction leaning.I am Legend is certainly one of those. Then there’s Blindsight from PeterWatts. Blindsight is actually a bleak as hell hard science fiction novel. PeterWatts’s writing makes most horror writers seem like they’re writing aboutsunshine and pretty flowers. In the world of Blindsight there are vampires andthere is a very strong science fiction explanation for them and I absolutelylove it.
Shining in Crimson isthe first book in my Empire of Blood series. The Empire of Blood series overallis about the American Empire, a religiously ruled empire ran by an Emperor whohas made himself out to be God. On the other side of this story there are thevampires. The vampires arrived on the scene around the time the nation was atwar before the Empire took over. The Emperor’s side won and made a deal withthe vampires that they could have a city of their own and all the blood theycould ever want if they stay put.
