Daryll Kelly Ebook, EPUB/MOBI/PDF available, open ended until 100 claims, horror, Where the Shadows Gather - Daryll Kelly

Available: https://claims.prolificworks.com/free...

The book is already available on Amazon as it's my first piece of (self) published work, and I naively didn't look into ARC readers beforehand (lesson learned).

I have made the book available for and indefinite period of time until the first 100 free copies are claimed. I will also be making the book available for 99p over August.

I would be extremely grateful to anyone who'd be happy to read the book and provide some honest reviews.

Many Thanks,

Daryll

Hi Maranda,

It is a story about the host of a failing paranormal reality TV show who buys an infamous house in Newcastle in the hope that it will help to boost ratings.

Research will point to a history that has been carefully manufactured, until unexplainable and tragic events begin to take place in the lead up to the shoot.

It is written in a mixed media format combining text messages, emails, blog posts and articles to drive the narrative forward, similar to found footage horror movies.

I would liken it to Episode Thirteen by Craig DiLouie.

Many Thanks,

Daryll

Thanks Keebah! While I was writing it my target audience was initially fans of supernatural horror. As I got more into writing I realised it was becoming much more interesting to focus on the multi-media format. So, while it's very much a supernatural horror story it organically became a contemporary epistolary horror story as well, so I would hope this novel would appeal to fans of those sorts of stories too.

Author Jolandi Stadler Hi
With my debut horror novel, The Devil's Dance, releasing in April 2027, I'm looking to connect with other authors who would be interested in doing a review swap.
The idea is simple: 🖤 I'll read and honestly review your book. 🖤 You read and honestly review The Devil's Dance once it's released.
If you're interested, kindly email me.
