Zombie-in-Chief: A Novel Take on a Brain-Dead Election
by Scott KenemoreBestselling author Scott Kenemore is back with a hilarious, over-the-top, and bloodthirsty send-up of the 2016 political season. In the tradition of Joe Klein's Primary Colors and Richard Condon's The Manchurian Candidate, Zombie-in-Chief: Eater of the Free World is a compelling and dramatic story with characters and events that may resemble familiar, real-life elections a little too closely! After all, who better to perform an autopsy of the American political system than an expert on the undead? When a tycoon and reality TV star improbably wins his party's nomination for the presidency, pundits and analysts are as baffled as they are certain that he will never win the general election. What can a man who already lives at the top of a golden skyscraper with a supermodel wife still want? Absent entirely from their prognostications is the possibility that it could be to gorge upon the brains of the living! That he dreams of building a border wall to better keep delicious humans in! That he seeks to make American great again. . . for zombies! Only an unlikely journalistic partnership between a reporter fresh from J-school and a blogger who is derided and dismissed as "fake news" seems to have any chance of derailing the tycoon's plans and exposing him as a member of the walking dead. Yet a terrifying question still remains. . . In a nation divided along political lines as never before, will such a revelation change anything? Or will a candidate revealed to be a proud "Zombie American" simply be another stepping stone on a historic (and not-so-above-board) journey to the presidency?

el demonio andrajoso trilogía: réquiem - resurrección - renacer
by Steve Vernon Stanlyn Guaita VallenillaEn tres días, Vic se levantará, una cosa de tierra, hueso y odio. Los hombres lo llamarán el Demonio Andrajoso y el infierno seguirá. En 1691, Pueblo de Crossfall le enseñó a la bruja Thessaly cómo morir. La golpearon, le dispararon, la ahorcaron, pero nada funcionó. Cuando finalmente intentaron enterrarla con vida, Thessaly puso el campo en contra de ellos. El primer hombre murió cuando una ráfaga de viento sacudió la carne de sus huesos. Una raíz, lanzada como una jabalina sucia, derribó a un segundo hombre. Muchas más muertes siguieron. El Predicador Fell empaló a la bruja en su propia escoba, pero ella lo arrastró consigo al campo para esperar tres siglos más. Trescientos años después, Maddy Harker asesinará a su abusivo esposo Vic. Ella lo enterrará en el campo donde enterró a su abusivo padre años antes. El mismo campo donde el espíritu de Thessaly Cross está esperando. En tres días, Vic volverá a levantarse, una cosa de tierra, hueso y odio. Los hombres lo llamarán el Demonio Andrajoso. LO QUE LA GENTE ESTÁ DICIENDO ACERCA DE STEVE VERNON "El género necesita sangre nueva y Steve Vernon es una gran transfusión". -Edward Lee, autor de CARNE GÓTICA Y CIUDAD ENFERNAL "Si Harlan Ellison, Richard Matheson y Robert Bloch tuvieron un juguete sexual tripartito en una bañera de hidromasaje, y luego un equipo de científicos entró y filtró el agua y mezcló el ADN sobrante en un tubo de ensayo, el experimento genético resultante lo más probable es que crezca en Steve Vernon ". - Bookgasm "Steve Vernon es una especie de anomalía en el mundo de la literatura de terror. Es una de las voces más frescas del género, aunque su carrera abarca veinte años. Escribiendo con una arrogancia y confianza inusuales, Steve Vernon puede guiar a sus lectores a través de toda una gama de emociones desde el miedo absoluto y la repulsión, a la compasión y la risa”. - Baile Cementerio
family

It is a day like any other when seventeen-year-old Melinda Jensen hits the road for San Francisco, leaving behind her fractured home life and a constant assault on her self-esteem. Henry is the handsome, charismatic man who comes upon her, collapsed on a park bench, and offers love, a bright new consciousness, and-best of all-a family. One that will embrace her and give her love. Because family is what Mel has never really had. And this new family, Henry#x19;s family, shares everything. They share the chores, their bodies, and their beliefs. And if Mel truly wants to belong, she will share in everything they do. No matter what the family does, or how far they go.

It is an unflinching look at people who are born broken, and the lengths they#x19;ll go to to make themselves #x1C;whole#x1D; again.
