Run from this place,
From the town of demons,
Walkers of the night.
Palm trees bow to their power.
Sand covers the victims.
Tourists flee the hotel.
The winds howl their name.
Recently finished "Not A Good Fit At this Time" by Adam Hulse and had a blast with it. Check out my Goodreads review for details but fans of horror, science fiction, and dark fantasy should absolutely give it a read!
The trees of the forest shiver and shake.
Their long limbs tremble from the next quake.
White is the color of my nightgown
As I stand and shiver with a frown.
A shadow emerges from the trees.
I hope it is not him, pretty please.
My body moves forward against my will.
I grab a thick tree and try to hold still.
I dig my feet into the packed snow,
But I must go where the wind might blow.
To Bloom in the Shadows is officially here! Grab your beverage of choice and dive into the Everautumn courts where shadows lurk and love isn't as simple as easy as the old faerie tales make it seem.
Saint Death's Daughter by C. S. E. Cooney is only $0.99 on Amazon (maybe other retailers too.) It was one of my favourite reads last year. Dark fantasy with a heart.
A town laden with mystery
and cursed by dark history
appears peaceful by day
until the cursed ones play
with the inhabitants' lives
like bears attacking bee hives.
