Advance Praise

“This would make a wonderful TV serial, akin to the recent Lovecraft Country. I enjoyed my time in this strange land immensely, and am looking forward very much to the next titles in the series. Absolutely recommended.”

– The Catbox

“Page-turningly addictive… It’s quite dark and surprisingly powerful, and a far more emotional story than you might expect. Very much worth checking out.”

Featured Reviews

I freaking love these samplers! A publisher who published these samplers really want me to buy their books because they give so much in each excerpt that you are committed to the story and will want to finish. Not to say all the books in this sampler were winners for me personally, but I always find more stories I like than of those I don't. Great collection! Thank you Aconyte Books and NetGalley for the free eARC!

Read these samples...They are free... AND I highly recommend them! What more do you need to know? Well ok, if you need more keep on reading.

This is definitely a case of don’t judge a book by its cover. I wouldn’t have picked up most of these books usually, but I am excited to say that I loved the samples in this set. The writing was great and was a pleasure to read. The storylines suck you in with well-paced action.

I will definitely get my favourite book from this set and recommend that you read them all to see if you do the same.
