“With his latest, Waggoner presents a woman searching for relatives that attempted to create their own god, and her cousin who wants to unleash the evil entity on the world.”
Around twenty years ago, a strange cult conjured their own god. The Lord of the Feast was a dreadful misbegotten thing. The horrified cultists killed the creature before it could rise to full power. The cultists used mystic nightstones to trap the god, then quickly disbanded.
Now one of the cultists children, Kate, is looking her long-lost relatives, eager to learn what really happened that fateful night.
And Ethan, Kate’s cousin, is following her, also seeking those lost relatives. He hopes she’ll lead him to the nightstones so he can resurrect the Lord of the Feast … and this time, Ethan plans to do the job right.
Why we’re excited about this book:
Though he’s well-known in the horror fiction world, Tim Waggoner seems likes he’s just getting started, consistently delivering hard-hitting, nightmarish horror regularly. The author of the Nekropolis series, Your Turn to Suffer, The Mouth of the Dark, Like Death, We Will Rise, and A Hunter Called Night among others, and has written tie-ins for several popular franchises such as Supernatural, Alien, Grimm, and Halloween. Waggoner’s Writing in the Dark non-fiction series tackles writing horror fiction with his own personal spin on the genre. With his latest, Waggoner presents a woman searching for relatives that attempted to create their own god, and her cousin who wants to unleash the evil entity on the world. Horror Fiction Review says: “Tim Waggoner … has a knack for taking conventional horror tropes and giving them a deliciously bizarre spin.”, and Signal Horizon says: “His ability to weave the surreal with the hyper-real is his greatest talent.”
Releasing from Flame Tree Press 16 April 2024, Lord of the Feast by Tim Waggoner is available for pre-order now.
