New Reviews

I always enjoy hearing from you, the readers. It lets me know if I’m on the right track with my stories, what works, and what doesn’t.

First, we have a 5-star review on Amazon from user Steven Page on Tales of the Hunters (Stories from the World of Winston & Baum). “Having binge-read the Winston and Baum steampunk series, I reached the final volume with some sadness, as the series had been so enjoyable. Seth tucker showed some real growth as a writer as the series progressed. Characters developed, plot lines from the first book showed up again and again to reach a conclusion, and the reader got to KNOW these people, and enjoy their adventures.

This volume tells five tales set in the W&B universe, all containing characters who will be familiar to readers of the series. The first two stories are of the “Weird West” genre, and both are deserving of treatment on film . The third story is set in Scotland, and the final two involve our heroes, Winston and Baum, in a much-welcomed prequel, and that wonderful, scene-stealing goblin, Brackish, in a solo adventure.

One of the things that makes this series so much fun, is the author takes horror tropes we all know and love, use them wisely, then gives them just enough of a twist to make the story fresh, new and memorable. This collection is a true reward for lovers of horror , steam punk and vintage pulp.

I hope Seth Tucker continues this fun series for many more years.”

I have good news for Steven. I’m working on a new Winston & Baum adventure currently.

I somehow missed this 4-star review from 2023 from Amazon user Sharon Terre for Friends Don’t Let Friends Be Undead titled: Good flow of story. No grammar errors. Builds up suspense step by step. Yes, I would recommend it. The review reads: “I enjoyed it because the vampire was not cutsey, also no sex to distract from the story line. It set up the characters nicely.”

We love Reader Reviews

My book Reaper of the Harvest just received it’s first review on Amazon. The 5-star review said:

“Great story with a few twists and turns! The book is very graphic from a gore standpoint but works great in this horror setting. This book would perfectly translate into a movie! I give this book 5 stars or as the author would have it, 5 new Scarecrows…”

Have you read Reaper of the Harvest? If so, do you agree with the review? If not, pick up a copy here.

2023 in Review

2023 proved to be a great year at the writing desk. I was able to put out 4 stories this year: 3 short stories and 1 novel. My wife and I launched a podcast, which I’ve wanted to do for a few years now. I appreciate everyones support and can’t tell you how much it’s meant. Every year has its ups and down, and this year was no different. But, I’m focusing on the good.

I only had 2 appearances this year Connooga and Next Chapter Con, both of which I hope to be in 2024 with hopefully a few other sprinkled through the year. You can keep checking back here for any new shows.

You can click on any of the titles below to grab a copy.

A quick round-up:

1. I released my gothic, plague doctor story Rabenhaus, on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited.

2. In October, I released my 80’s slasher inspired novel The Silver Springs Ritual in paperback on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited.

3. The same month, I released my Halloween short story The Last Trick or Treat on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited.

4. Finally, this month, I released the feel good holiday story of the year Toby’s Christmas Wish on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited.

If you like monster movies and creature design, check out our podcast Creature Features, releasing the 1st and 15th of every month.

I’m grateful for the great things that 2023 brought, and I’m excited about what 2024 holds in store. I’ll give you a hint: more short stories.

An Amazon customer recently gave The Silver Springs Ritual a 5-star review.

“The Silver Springs Ritual is a camp slasher with a few twists. Camp Silver Springs has a new owner who is opening the camp for the first time in 20 years. But a killer armed with an ax is lurking in the woods. There’s plenty of action, suspense and gore, but the novel’s real strength is how well the characters and locations are fleshed out before the carnage starts. Highly recommended to fans of slasher movies.”
