Happy to announce that Seventh Star Press has released my new novel Red December. It is available on all major online bookselling platforms as of today, and there are links to the title below. Heartfelt thanks to my family, Sarah, Maddy, and Izzy—to Stephen Zimmer and Holly Phillippe of Seventh Star Press—and to Don, Fran, and Zac, to whom the book is dedicated.
For anyone looking for a thrill ride of a summer read and a chance to cool off with a bit of blood and snow, I invite you to check out this tale of hunters and werewolves lost in a merciless wood. Come and meet the menagerie—if your beauty has ever dreamt of a beast, why not invite the wolf and the wild hog? Now there’s a party! Better have your fun before the armed and salaried agents close in—makes you wonder who is friend and who is foe.
Note that this is a hellion of a horror novel—a thrill ride—if it were a movie, it’d have the “viewer discretion” advisory—so before uncorking the bottle, understand that this is a strong spirit. That said, if you enjoy an action-packed story that doesn’t shy from delving deeper into its characters’ hearts and minds, give Red December a try. In the words of Alan Perkins, author of While the Witch Whispered a Prayer, “The gore is plentiful but not excessive, the dialogue and description finely balanced, and the writing crisp and refreshing.”
Carl R. Moore is the author of Slash of Crimson and Other Tales, Mommy and the Satanists, Chains in the Sky, and Red December, published by Seventh Star Press. He has published numerous short stories in magazines and anthologies, most recently with Jumpmaster Press and Crystal Lake Entertainment.
