Newton Webb

Pop Goes The Weasel, by M. J. Arlidge: You know, I think this might be even better than the prequel Eeny Meeny ( https://buff.ly/6XUDb81 ). It’s darker, it’s more compelling, the plot drives forward relentlessly, and we can move on from the origin stories to focus on a new serial killer.

Eeny Meeny, by M.J. Arlidge. Action-packed, gory, with sexual content and a delightful twist. This is definitely my favourite of the crime thrillers I’ve read this month. I’ve been on a bit of a thriller binge, and it’s no surprise that my favourite read was the most horror-aligned.

I mentioned reading Everyone Dies Famous in a Small Town by Wrath James White last month, which was also recommended by the SplatterChatter book group. But I had to talk about Junebug. It's a delightful piece of extreme horror. Really, it's a novella in two parts, but it's a brilliant mix of gore, affection, and has a tasty twist.

Festival of the Damned: A Folk Horror Novella

https://buff.ly/JLWTFb9

It’s my birthday, and to celebrate, I’m giving away Festival of the Damned, a complete novella, for free.

This was the first, and longest, novella that I published. Judging by the reviews, I’d say it has held up well. I’m immensely proud of it. After its release, I made the decision to quit being a computer programmer and become a full-time author.

Festival of the Damned

There is something sinister in the woods tonight.

Four troubled teenagers find themselves a job at a village fête.

But the beautiful village of Huddersford is not all that it seems. Behind every benevolent smile, every cheery wave and every welcoming gesture lies a dark and terrifying secret.
