‘The sheer zest of the storytelling here is infectious. James has mastered the knack of meshing the fast-paced lingo of paramilitary thrillers with the colorful worldbuilding of urban fantasy… A fast-paced, richly imagined, gritty tale of modern-day good versus evil.’-Kirkus Reviews
The life of Clyde Williams had certainly taken a detour these last months. Turning from aspiring comic book artist to low-ranked Level 1 necromancer. He saw things. Fought things. He killed, and even took a trip to the dead realm of Erebus.
And now he’s official, an agent of the paranormal intelligence department Hourglass, and posted to New York’s Madhouse facility with the ghost of his best friend and their seasoned team.
And they have their work cut out for them. Local Hourglass assets are being targeted by a lethal, horrifically-enhanced killer called The Hangman, the first weapon in a new campaign of terror being waged against Hourglass. But he won’t be the last. The Cairnwood Society is producing more of these monstrous madmen, and it’s up to Clyde and his team to find out their dark methods, and shut them down before Cairnwood can amass an army of nightmare killers to launch against Hourglass, and the world.
Sobre o autor
Daniel James is an author of speculative fiction from Liverpool, England. He is the recipient of 3 Kirkus Star reviews for his supernatural fantasy thrillers Hourglass, The Ferryman’s Toll, and the upcoming Hair-Trigger Smile. Hourglass was also voted one of their Best 100 Indie novels of 2021.He is represented by Laurie Blum Guest at Re-Naissance Agency. Daniel first began writing as a hobby and creative outlet to distract himself from the mundanity of completing his Bachelors of Science at Liverpool Hope University. Growing up, he spent perhaps a little too much time daydreaming about superheroes and horror movies. In his mid-teens he got his first bass guitar and joined his first rock band, and growing up he maintained this interest in music, playing in several other bands and gigging locally, which is one of the reasons why he always insists on putting music in his novels.
