WE LOVE READER REVIEWS! THE DEVIL'S DUE GETS 5 STARS ON GOODREADS!

 


WE LOVE READER REVIEWS! Big thanks to Darrell Grizzle for his kind words and 5 STAR GoodReads review for The Devil's Due anthology from Valhalla Books. You can read the full review here: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3625671672

"The Devil’s Due is an “unlucky 13” stories about people who make Faustian bargains (sometimes unwittingly) with the devil or one of his infernal agents. It’s a familiar literary trope, but the authors in this anthology breathe new life into it, sometimes by recasting a story in an unexpected setting. Bobby Nash’s story “Dante’s Teeth” is set in the Old West, and it’s an excellent Western as well as a horror story. “Genevieve and the Owl” by Mark Allan Gunnells takes the form of a dark fairy tale, and as a lover of folk horror I found the story fascinating. “Mary’s Secret” by Winfield Strock III (an author who is new to me) gives us a story of Victorian-era spiritualism and a historical setting in the form of a secret letter written by Mary Todd Lincoln in 1882. And one of my favorite horror themes, the cursed book, ends the anthology with Adam Messer’s “The Known and True History of the Djin.” Highly recommended for all lovers of horror literature."

Thanks again, Darrell. I'm glad you liked it.

Bobby
