Metaxysm: A Creature Feature Horror by RE Holding
Sometimes your worst enemy is yourself
“I shouldn't have brought Metaxysm outside the lab. Even looking at it now, I know something strange has happened with it.”
Abby is an underground inventor in the suburbs of a mid-size city where what you know doesn’t carry as much weight as who you know. Struggling in her new role at Soto Labs, she tries time and again to create a gadget that will earn her acclaim within the scientific community and, more importantly, among her peers.
Her colleague, Ben, a senior inventor with his own struggles, takes Abby under his wing. But in a devastating blow to both of their egos, a careless mistake is made that immediately threatens the life of another employee, puts a target on Abby’s back, and sets the world at risk.
Backed into a corner, Abby's last hope is that Ben's next move is the right choice.
Lovecraft meets Clue In this fast-paced horror-infused tale of fear and the unknown. Fans of horror, science fiction, or other uniquely told tales of the macabre will enjoy “Metaxysm.”
Fantasy
Trollsbane by Gregory Amato
Norse fantasy at its best
The land spirits are panicking.
Ansgar knows how to listen to those spirits as he travels the wild lands of the North, and they’re telling him to watch his back. A vagabond viking with a unique approach to personal hygiene is looking out for him. Will one ally be enough? There are outlaws in the forest around them. And if the stories are true, there are trolls with a taste for human flesh not far beyond.
Which is probably just what those spirits are warning him about.
Trollsbane is a prequel story to Gregory Amato's Norse fantasy series Spear of the Gods, where the myths, magic, and monsters of the Viking Age are all real.
