Loyal readers of this magazine will already be very familiar with
the work of Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc as she has graciously contributed
to every issue since we opened our doors. If you've enjoyed her work
so far, we now have a recommendation to make…
Think of every vampire or zombie tale you have encountered, then
prepare to be surprised. Michael is macabre journey into another
world. With intricate twists and turns, this dark tale will both
delight and shock lovers of the gothic, all the while enticing the
reader the find out more about Taylor's twisted relationship with
the mysterious Michael.
Taylor felt that his only show more friends were the dead resting in the
Land's Down Cemetery, but he never expected to meet a living person
there. Michael appeared seemingly out of nowhere, and there's one
other thing Taylor did not expect…Michael isn't exactly a living
person. Neither dead nor undead, Michael is something Taylor never
expected. He soon finds himself plunged into a terrifying unknown
world, held by the strange creature calling itself Michael.
Michael is a definite treat for those looking for something
different. This novel, in many ways, represents everything small and
independent presses are supposed to be about—readers looking for
something they have not already seen in twenty slightly different
incarnations. But people who normally stick to the bestsellers list
can also find something intriguing here as this brand of horror is
genuinely horrifying in the "what the hell" kind of way. You might
be repulsed or disgusted or even freaked out, but you still want to
know what happens between Taylor and Michael.
If you call yourself a horror fan, you have to check out this novel
and the author's previous novels The Two and A Man of Two Worlds.
This is not the kind of novel you like or dislike—it's the kind of
novel you experience, the kind that follows you around in flashes
the rest of your life.
