David Buchanan's latest novel will be free to download November 15th through the 20th. In this latest installment of the Task Force series the fledgling government agency responsible for combating Eldritch horrors from beyond is faced with an existential and moral quandary. What is it to be human, who is qualified to make that assessment, does a child of human and Eldritch parentage have basic human rights, or does their danger to humanity necessitate a cold and clinical approach? If we lose our compassion and set aside our human decency then have we lost our humanity and become monsters ourselves? Boundaries will be pushed, bonds tested and new protocols enacted.

July's special offering is David Buchanan's horror novel Small Retreat which will be free to download on the 1st of July for one day only.

If you haven't read any of his earlier works then this is the perfect novel to get introduced to the Task Force as they battle other worldly threats to make America safe from voracious entities that come from the darkness between the stars.

A mysterious murder, a secretive government agency, a young pregnant woman on the run, these things are seemingly unrelated but converge in this story as a group of men, some newly enlisted, from the Task Force investigate a series of Eldritch events that lead them to a remote lodge in Maine wher...

This month I’d like to spotlight Destinee Bolton, her work is a fresh take on Fantasy, her characters have a life and vibrancy both on the page and at the game table. Writing about her D&D characters firmly grounds this author’s work in the Fantasy genre where her vivid descriptions of magic bring the spells to life. If you enjoyed her short story The Call of the Nameless in the December 2022 issue #17 then you’ll love to sink your teeth into her latest foray into Fantasy in May’s issue. Be sure to download it and read A Spell too Far.
