About Mark Barry-fReado

 About Mark Barry-fReado  - check out samples of Mark Barry's novels


Mark Barry, author of “Hollywood Shakedown”, “Ultra Violence” and “Carla”, is a Psychologist and writer whose main interest focuses on relationships between people. He has been writing since he was twenty one, having his first piece published in 1986. He has written extensively on a variety of topics including, horse racing, football, personality disorders and human relationships. Influenced by the great playwrights and screenwriters, much of Mark’s work transpires in dialogue. He deplores exposition and, in his fiction, leaves the reader in a state of nervousness more than he probably should. Mark has had an extensive career as a professional project designer and bid writer, having accrued over £20m for groups and organisations working with disadvantaged people. An ex-lecturer, Mark designed and delivered the UK’s first ever course in Criminal Psychology in 1997. Much of this work infils his fiction: Psychopathy and Borderline Personality Disorders are featured heavily in “Carla”, for example. Currently, Mark is a full time fiction writer and freelance blogger. He has been interviewed on several Radio talk shows where he has given readings of his work. His work has been featured in The Sun and Daily Mail and he has also been interviewed on Television. Mark resides in Southwell, Nottinghamshire with his teenage son.

The Ritual by Mark Barry is featured on Addicted to Ebooks



MarkBarry's pictureMark Barry http://addictedtoebooks.com/content/ritual  Price: $0.99Author: Mark BarryGenre: HorrorParanormalSuspense / ThrillerDescription: Ohio mother and daughter duo Phillippa and Jennifer travel to England to spend some time with a distressed relative. Mum loves it in the Green and Pleasant: Daughter - an angry, misanthropic EMO with a grudge, a badass attitude and seriously in-your-face dress sense - hates everything about England and wants out. Yesterday. Spotted by a high cleric of an international cult, they are tracked to their destination; a prosperous Midlands town called Wheatley Fields. The cult believes one of the duo is the prophesied reincarnation of their unholy deity, a crazed seventeenth century lesbian witch named Martha Atkins, whose shadowy and unwanted entry into pre-colonial America predates the Mayflower. Their quarry is a glittering prize. A Grail they aren’t going to let slip through their fingers. Havoc strikes the town. Death. Burning. Cold winds. Mutilation. Evisceration. Possession. Strange animals skulk along petrified pavements. Corvus colonise the skyline. Sentient spiders stalk oblivious householders. Ephemeral shadows, appear just below the level of perception. It seems like the town teeters on the precipice above the brimstone circles of Hell. Finally, the cult succeeds in trapping one of the family. Thus, the other faces a fight to the death to prevent a terrifying centuries old Ritual of reincarnation - and the horrifying sacrifice of someone they love. “The best of the first six Green Wizard books – a real surprise! Ken Lance, Northampton. “This is totally insane. It reminded me of the horror blockbusters of the seventies. I loved it.” Mary Quallo, St Louis. “I had to skim some of it – it was too bloody for me – but it tracks along like a runaway train.” Mary Ann Bernal - author of “The Briton and the Dane trilogy.” “Sexy, scary and faster than a speeding bullet. The Ritual is one of the best books I’ve read this year.” Carnaby Reed, Jacksonville.Profanity: Mild ProfanityViolence: Mild ViolenceSex: KissingMild SexAmazon US: http://www.amazon.com/The-Ritual-ebook/dp/B0086QDF0M
