Three full-length horror novels bundled together for one low price: Eden's Eyes, Captain Quad, The Cartoonist.
EDEN'S EYES
PRAY YOU NEVER SEE THE WORLD THROUGH EDEN’S EYES.
On a cool spring night in a quiet northern community, a life of violence comes to a violent end. In a drunken brawl, petty criminal Eden Crowell is beaten to the brink of death. Following a futile attempt to save his life, doctors approach his father with an appeal for the man’s organs. In defiance of his wife’s wishes, Bert Crowell agrees, and his son’s organs are harvested.
Blind writer Karen Lockhart becomes one of three grateful recipients, gaining sight after a lifetime of darkness. But with sight comes a new breed of darkness. In a series of increasingly more vivid dreams, Karen witnesses horrors that threaten to shatter her sanity.
But soon, Karen comes to realize that what she’s experiencing are much more than simple dreams. One by one the organ recipients die horrible, mutilating deaths…and Karen witnesses it all with her new eyes.
Now, she’s next.
CAPTAIN QUAD
THE GREENSTICK SNAP! OF A SHATTERED SPINE TRANSFORMS A LOVING YOUNG MAN INTO A MALIGN AND VENGEFUL FORCE.
If you're an optimist you've probably heard the expression, 'When one door closes, another one opens.' But for Peter Gardner, a young man fresh out of high school with a literal bank of doorways standing open to him, they all slam shut at once. A terrible accident leaves him quadriplegic, paralyzed from the neck down, shattering his dreams of flying, tearing his family apart, and ending a cherished relationship with his girl. Now, he wishes only for death.
But ironically, it is a brush with death which opens a new door for Peter. And when he 'steps' through, it is not into sunlight and promise, but into the darkest reaches of fury, torment and revenge.
So ask yourself this: "Do I have the courage to step through with him?"
THE CARTOONIST
Imagine this: You and two of your best friends have just been accepted into medical school, a coveted payoff after years of hard work and self-sacrifice. So you go on a road trip together, have a few drinks, a final fling before the long academic haul ahead. Young and bright, you feel the future surge beneath you like a sleek stallion, under your full control.
But a series of small lapses ends in tragedy and now you're confronted with a terrible decision: Do you take responsibility for what you've done and risk losing everything? Or flee into the night unseen, with only God and conscience as your jury?
Sixteen years ago, Scott Bowman faced this very decision . . .
Now a successful psychiatrist with a loving family, Scott endures a judgement more terrible than any god or man could conceive. An ancient derelict appears in his practice, an apparently senile old man with a remarkable artistic talent. Otherwise disconnected from the world around him, this strange little man quickly demonstrates an ability to foretell events through his drawings.
But before long Scott has to wonder: is this eldritch prophet predicting events? Or shaping them?
