Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researching sustainable energy, Rick’s best friend Wally has discovered a means to tap into the bioplasmic energy field that surrounds all living things. He envisions trains and office towers running off collective psi. But when he invites his friends to test his psychotronic generator, they unleash demons residing in the human old brain, the seat of aggression and primal drives. As the body count rises, it becomes clear, for these creatures of the id to survive, their creators must die. Pursued by police and hunted by their doubles, the choice is simple: kill or be killed. Even if the face of the enemy is your own. *** “The Dark Half meets From Beyond in this tale that will scratch your old-school horror itch the only way Boatman knows how—ferocious, fast-paced, and fun.” — Asher Ellis, author of Curse of the Pigman and The Remedy “Bone-chilling, brimming with tension, raw emotion, and vivid imagery, Boatman’s Night’s Plutonian Shore is a haunting read from beginning to end. A coming-of-age tale like no other, one that I could not put down, and did not want to end.” — Candace Nola, author of Bishop. “Grappling with mortality while shivving your duplicate self—NIGHT’S PLUTONIAN SHORE is complex, riveting, and horror of a sort that brings the hard bite back to any discerning fan of the genre.” — Eric J. Guignard, multiple award-winning author and editor, including That Which Grows Wild and Doorways to the Deadeye “A raw, mind-bending creepshow that reads, every now and then, like Jim Thompson’s gone punk. Night’s Plutonian Shore gets under your skin, makes it crawl—in the best possible way. A weird, wild ride.” — Andy Davidson, author of The Boatman’s Daughter and The Hollow Kind “…brutal and heartbreaking, this is dark horror with sci-fi elements that create a gloomy atmosphere with spine-tingling, evil doppelgängers causing devastation and fear. Edgy and tense!” — Karla’s Literary Korner “Boatman's writing bruises with brutality and humanity. Gritty, breakneck, and terrifyingly dark.” —Lee Murray, four-time Bram Stoker Award winner and author of Grotesque: Monster Stories

Download or read book Nights Plutonian Shore written by DeWayne Twitchell and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From DeWayne Twitchell, the author of ASIAN HAZE, comes his first collection of short fiction, NIGHT'S PLUTONIAN SHORE & OTHER STORIES. The eight stories in this collection, never before published in any magazine or book anthology, run the gamut from science fiction to fantasy. In the title story, humanity receives a mysterious message from the stars. A message that brings about the ultimate madness to those who attempt to decipher its meaning. In "Patient Alpha," an intelligence agent becomes the guinea pig in a government experiment to change the world for the better. In "My First Burning," in a near-future world where all religion has been outlawed, a woman recalls personally witnessing her first "Burning," the fiery execution of clergy in this new world order. In "New World," a science fiction writer talks to a television interviewer about a momentous occasion for the history of mankind, a moment not quite of our world. In "One Brief Perspective of a Paradigm Shift in Progress," a normal Easter Sunday morning suddenly and without warning becomes abnormal beyond imagining. And the collection concludes with three interconnected stories, set in a world of magic, mystery, and beauty: In "Blue Sunday," three men are drawn mysteriously to a place in the woods of southern Illinois, where they will soon be forever transformed, and in the process bringing birth to a new world. In "The Shock and the Light," a man details the strange events of his life after a seemingly non-eventful accidental fall into a pond, events that will lead him to his ultimate destiny. And in the final story, "The Triangle of the Pillars," two men battle to the death for a realm not their own, leading to a tragedy that befalls one of the realm's inhabitants, a tragedy that forces him to leave his homeland in search of inner peace. These eight tales of the fantastic, in this world and beyond, will take the reader's mind to the extreme.

Book excerpt: London 1890s. Out of the Thames' fetid depths the undead rise to feast upon the living. While floaters seek blood, another army takes advantage of the chaos.

While the beleaguered police and the Queen's army battle twin plagues-human and inhuman-London's criminal youth gangs join forces to save their city. Will Tagget, leader of the Lambeth Lads, together with his enemies Bill Drummond of the Drury Lane Gang, bull-necked George Fish of the Elephant and Castle Gang, shillelagh-wielding Dirk Bogart of the New Cut Gang, Quincy Bird of City Road, along with their female counterparts-Lambeth Kate, Queen Jane, New Cut Beth, Razor Lil and Dirty Deidre-set out on an adventure the telling of which might earn a man a lifetime of free drinks. If he lives to tell it. Will these violent youths be able to put aside their rivalries long enough to get the job done?
