Father's Day is this weekend, and you know what that means - awkward family barbeques and neckties that will simply be re-gifted. Give your dad what he really wants: a big book of frights, courtesy of horror master Nicolas Paschall.

Pachall's latest, The Father of Flesh, is half Indiana Jones, half H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu, and 100% terror. The book is sure to make your skin crawl.

Terror befalls a rural Chinese hamlet when an ancient evil awakens from its slumber. The villagers start transforming into horribly deformed blobs of skin with an unslakable hunger for human flesh. With the help of two graduate students and the Chinese military, Professor Nickels sets off to thwart the ancient menace before it can engulf the world.

Blast off to new adventures across time and space, with author Christopher Cobb at the helm.

The novel follows Trace Jackson, modern-day Floridian, after a botched alien abduction sends him back in time to 1818. He meets a beautiful Seminole woman, and the two strike up a relationship. Unfortunately, Trace’s distant ancestor, General Andrew Jackson, is hell-bent on driving out the Seminoles by whatever means necessary.

Meanwhile, Josette Legard is transported from World War II-era France to fight an interstellar war. Her new "allies" have offered Josette her heart's desire—the chance to live during the Italian Renaissance—but Josette questions whether her trust in them is misplaced.

Can they survive to fulfill their destinies in another dimension where time no longer has meaning, on a moon called Sun?

New Release: Holy

Abbie Krupnick's debut novel is out now: Holy, the story of young Gus Stevens as he undergoes a psychoanalytic exorcism to regain control of his life. This comes with a high price—he must break away from everything he has ever thought was real. Told from Gus's perspective, the novel touches upon such issues as mental health and finding one's place in the world. Gus is an unreliable narrator - everything he experiences, he accepts as real (well, it is real, isn't it?), although careful readers may pick up on subtle clues as to what's actually going on. It's a whirlwind experience and a tour de force for this first-time author.

Get ready to blast-off into a new realm of sci-fi. Author Christopher F. Cobb's The Slant Six seamlessly blends science fiction intensity with NASCAR-style racing, in space!

The audiobook will be narrated by film and television actor Matt Weight. Mr. Weight has worked on the feature film Hell Town (2015) and the television series Rescue Me (2007), among other roles.

​​The year is 2252 and Loman Phin is in trouble. A washed-up channelship racer turned freelancer, he hits pay dirt with his latest mission: a fortune is on the line if he can transport forty-three kilograms of human skin to a remote villa on Pluto's moon, Nix. Little does he know his very life is at stake when he gets caught up in an ancient feud, chased by a space vampire, and forced into a death-race by the king of Ceres. Meanwhile, danger is always hot on his heels in the form of a massive space freighter out for Loman's blood. With just his wits, his friends, and his beat-up cruiser, the Slant Six, Loman sets out on the most dangerous adventure of his life.

New Zealand travel writer and horror author Simon Petersen presents Slasher Sam, a fresh take on horror that's certain to chill your blood.

Beware: this book is not for the faint of heart, the weak of stomach, or the soft of bowels. In these pages are the blog entries of one of the most depraved serial killers of the 21st century—Slasher Sam.

Taking inspiration from several generations of horror films, Sam guts countless victims in creative ways, and posts these exploits to SlasherSam.com for the world to see, putting readers so close to the action that they’re practically in the splash zone when the blood goes flying. And is there ever blood—Sam’s a savvy killer, too well-versed in horror film lore to make rookie mistakes, which is why the kill count scores well into the double digits.

Visit www.SlasherSam.com if you dare, just remember: in cyberspace, everyone can hear you scream...
