I had the pleasure of meeting Jonathan at AuthorCon last year and he was delightful. Great to have him back with us for another group read.

The name of the book is The Dismembered by Jonathan Janz .
It's listed at the very top of this thread.

Char | 17472 comments I had the pleasure of finally meeting Jonathan at the Merrimack Valley Halloween Bookfest and I bought this book then.

Jonathan drove 16 hours to be at this festival which only reinforced to me that he really cares about his fans. I'm totally psyched for this read!

Char | 17472 comments Love the faux aged cover on this one. Whose idea was that?

I sent Matthew Revert tons of vintage Gothic book covers I loved, and he did the rest. I guess I came up with the tagline, but he proceeded to teach himself like three new types of software in order to create that cover. I'm still amazed by his talent. I think it's a genuine work of art!

Kalila | 1 comments Looking forward to reading this soon!! I quite enjoyed his The Siren and the Specter.

Jason Murray | 2 comments This will be my first group read. I'm not sure how I've made it 44 years and thousands of books without joining one, but I'm happy to be here.

Sally (evileyereviews) I have yet to read a Jonathan Janz book but I always see them! I think i'll have to join in on this one. I love those classic covers of women running away from mansions lol :)
