Cover Reveal of Living Dead Boy 2


Horror writer Rhiannon Frater released the cover for Lost In Texas her second book in the Living Dead Boy series.
The book's official release date is October 25, 2016, just in time for Halloween!
You can pre-order the book here!


This zombie filled post-apocalyptic children's book... Scratch that pre-teen book should be an instant hit with kids and adults alike.
Blurb:
In the zombie apocalypse, no one is safe. Not even children. That’s what twelve-year-old Josh and his friends in the Zombie Hunters Club discovered when the undead invaded their school in The Living Dead Boy.

Now, Josh and the remaining Zombie Hunters are stuck on a city bus traveling across zombie-infested Texas. With fires burning on the horizon, mass evacuations underway, zombies roaming the countryside, and in-fighting among the adults on the bus creating tension, Josh has never felt so helpless. Despite his father’s insistence that the adults can handle the situation, Josh knows far too well from watching zombie movies that one person can put everyone else at risk. To his absolute horror, he’s right and he and his friends are running for their lives.

Josh may have always considered himself a zombie hunter, but now he’ll have to prove it to escape the ravenous undead and lead his friends to safety.
End blurb.
Exciting huh? But you need to read The Living Dead Boy Book 1 first, and guess what? Book 1 has an audiobook version! Check out that link below.

Review: The Nightmare Pearl

The Nightmare Pearl by G. Lippert
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is one of those books that defies categorizing, it's part mystery, part ghost story but above all it's a love story. It's two stories told several years apart and intersects at the end.

Adolescent boy David befriends Becca a black girl living in an abandoned culvert in the early seventies, even though she's aloof they almost immediately form a close bond to one another.

Meanwhile in future Sheila an aspiring writer loses her literary agent husband in the collapse of the twin towers during the 2001 terrorist attacks, and she cannot accept the fact that her husband has perished.





How these two stories are told is done so beautifully and with such tenderness. You can't help but be touched by the conclusion.




The only weak part of this book is in the narration, Steve White does an awesome job and I could listen to him read any book! He's just that good. But the production quality of the portion read by Kimberly Meciti is poor and it jarring, especially after the smooth delivery by Steve. Kimberly is a decent narrator, it's just the production that's bad.

Overall though the book still rates 4 stars.
