Description

It all started when four-year-old Sam suddenly went missing.

Desperate to find his son, Sam’s father is given a bizarre task by a mysterious Keeper who has taken his child away.

The Keeper orders him to: “Find me proof of love.”

With no other options, he must except the seemingly impossible quest if he ever wants to see his son again.

But he soon discovers a hidden world of invisible people also searching for strange miracles for this monstrous Keeper … and some of them are mad.

So mad that they will kill to find what they seek.

In Perpetuity is a fantastical horror story. Dark, terrifying and gripping, Lebbon has yet again written another captivating tale.

Praise for Tim Lebbon’s works:

“Beautifully written and mysterious.” – Richard Laymon

“Tim Lebbon displays the sort of cool irony and uncanny mood-making that drive the best ‘Twilight Zone’ stories.” – New York Times Book Review

“At the end, you are left with … an impression of a nightmare from which you have awakened and cannot totally shake.” – Dark Echo

“One of the most powerful new voices to come along in the genre … Lebbon’s work is infused with the contemporary realism of Stephen King and … the lyricism of Ray Bradbury.” –– Fangoria

“Lebbon is a genuinely masterful writer … fresh ideas, shimmering prose, and often terrifying scenarios.” – Rue Morgue

“A masterpiece of traditional horror, graced with nuggets of sex and splatter. I really can’t praise it enough. It shot me to pieces.” – D.F. Lewis

“a terrific, very scary novella.” – Ellen Datlow

“With The Reach of Children, Lebbon has exceeded even his former astounding works.” – Horror World

“Lebbon has written one of the best and most emotionally convincing stories about death that I have ever read.” – Michael Marshall Smith

“Even if you haven’t lost a parent, or anyone truly close to you, REACH will give you a true sense of the kind of deep, unyielding sadness such an event brings. It’s a powerful book, and one that deserves to be read.” – Bookgasm

“For those who have not yet sampled Lebbon’s doom-laden tales of cosmic consequence, this is a fine place to start.” – Peter Crowther

“… striking and innovative” – Nick Gevers, SF Site
