This week sees the return of Catriona Ward to the show.
Sheβs here to talk about NOWHERE BURNING - her new novel of childhood survival, killer megastars, and a creepy estate high in the mountains. But we get so so much weirder than that.
So. Much. Fun.
All podcast platforms.
Buckle up!
Finishing @danielkraus.com βs THE SIXTH NIK. In full recovery mode now, just amazing. Thank you to @sagapressbooks.bsky.social for the experience.
Montreal is not a cheap place, too. There was probably some sticker shock after all the back patting was done.
the cover of No Gods for Drowning by Hailey Piper, art by Anna Chiara Stagi, showing a woman prostrating before a nine-pointed star. Under the title it says "God forbid a woman do anything"
So when the gods accept human sacrifice, it's fine, but when they leave and a woman takes matters into her own hands (& knife) to call them back, suddenly it's a problem π
NO GODS FOR DROWNING hits exactly 3 months from today from @badhandbooks.bsky.social

I'm not that big a fan of goodreads, but I know a few here are, so if you're looking for something splatterpunky, funny, horny, and bloody, then you can't go wrong with my vampire novel, THE SMALL HOURS.
Get it from @ghoulish.bsky.social here: ghoulish.rip/product/the-...
Thanks!

If you have a little extra time and want to learn more about a certain haunted town, you can spend a bit of time talking scared.

Early reactions are coming in: On Instagram, tyrshand said THE BOATMAN by @alexgrecian.bsky.social is a "perfect novella" and writes: "As eerie as this was, itβs so full of heart and in spite of the darkness I left this story with my own heart a little lighter."
