The Devil's Creature in the City of the Dead

DEVIL’S CREATURE
A cemetery is an unusual – and interesting - setting for a story. Lord Antoninus is a great villain along with his gang of ghuls. The MacBeths are a good contrast to him. Overall – makes this an original fantasy story. So different from the average one. I’m adding this to my shelf. Burgio (Grain of Salt).

I really enjoyed this book. I read it very quickly and wanted to pick up the next one . . . when is it out? The artwork is lovely, colourful and draws you to the book.
Plenty of action and I like the characters. Dougie's family are interesting . . . I wonder if his sister is going to get more involved? Or, is she stuck to her new iphone?
Well done.

R.H., you have crafted and incredible original story. Your ability to slowly pull back the curtains, and build tensions-- that explodes on the page, is mesmerizing. Your arch is pitch perfect and characters well developed. Loved the read
Great storytelling

Fantastic story. Had me hooked from the start. Looking forward to more from this author.Heather Finlay

Your short pitch and cover art drew me in. Its a very vivid picture. I think you have a strong command of your story. I love the names, they really add creativity to your characters. Well done. I’ve taking to reading Authonomy books as bedtime stories. If I can’t get past the first chapter, I don’t comment. The fact that I posted this means I did! I felt your book was of the quality I could offer this small amount of support to. The work you’ve put into it is evident and I wish you the best of luck in your journey. Backed!

Many thanks for your kind response, Robert - and do thank your daughter. Because of the horror I've been recommending it for teenagers; I don't want to give nightmares.

"Wonderful," my ten year old daughter exlaimed. And, I second that. Well written in a superb voice for children. Backed.

I hope you will give mine a read, and back it if you like it.
Best,

Thank you, Missy. I know Mhairi, Dougie and Jet will be pleased you enjoyed them. Hope you enjoy the rest of the adventure.

You've got a great story here with an awesome main character! I could see a whole franchise made out of this, you've created something marketable and entertaining. I really enjoyed what I've read of this.

Hi Owen,

Your positive comments are good to hear - thank you.

Don't tell anyone but I think the second book is better.

I Liked this a lot, sparky, inventive weaved with lovely characters and wonderful setting. This is definitely a series here which would appeal to young adults and children (and adults) ala Harry Potter. Really, really, good.

Hi Patrick,

Your positive response is very much appreciated. I'm sure Jet - despite what happens to her in God of the Underworld and the City of the Dead - will be really pleased you like her.

Thanks again.

Hi R.H.,

Great story. I love the array of vivid characters, especially Jet. I'm sure this will be a hit with fantasy fans, as well as Young Adults. Well-written, and I could see no errors in what I've read. Good luck and Best Wishes.

Thank you very much for your support. Will look at Royal Blood over the weekend.

Young adults will love this as much as I did, hope you will give mine a look, Backed. E.Loraine Royal Blood Chronicles book one

Hi Bamboo Promise,

I hope you weren't too scared by the tale when you got into the story.

The same artist is designing the cover for God of the Underworld and the City of the Dead. He'll be delighted to hear so many people like his work.

I am scared of Vampire and never want to hear about it. But, your book intrigues me and it gives me a courage to read through the pitch. I like your pitch. Before I start reading the chapters I want to back your book first. Cover is awesome.

Your cover art is excellent. The story is very scary, not sure I'd let my children read it when they were little, but so many people like a good horror story! Very creative. BACKED -Elizabeth Wolfe (Memories of Glory)

Thank you, Maggie,

So far the YAs have been enjoying it.

Many thanks for your support

I normally avoid vampire stuff like the plague, but your pitch made this sound something out of the ordinary so I gave it a go and found it to be rather entertaining, good luck with it, YAs will love it I think, Maggie.

Glad you like it !

Just my kind of creepy book ;-).

What more can a person say than FABULOUS!!! Not my usual genre but your cover was so striking that I was drawn to read your excellent book.
What an astonishing imagination you have, you've created a superb world and quite amazing characters.
I can see this appealing to young and old alike.

Happily shelved

Dear Liz,

I'm glad I grabbed your interest. I've had positive responses from adults as well a the teenagers who have read the tale. Hope you enjoy the rest. God of the Underworld and the City of the Dead is out at the end of summer.

This is so unique and imaginative - I have been sucked (no pun) into your first four chapters and will return for more later. BACKED with pleasure.

Thanks for your support, Lynn. When I'm signing copies I do warn them of the level of gruesome without snogging.

Aren't children weird? The fate of poor Agnes is something that will right up their street, I'm sure. The dramatic tone somehow elevates the horror. This is a very clever achievement considering your audience. The descriptive passages are superb. Backed. Lynn

Dear Paula,

Very many thanks for your kind comments. I hope you enjoy the rest of the tale.

I am in awe of your descriptive skills. I approached this one with caution, expecting morbid fantasy and Glaswegian slang. How original! Lord Antonius as a centurion, all the tales this can tie in and you are the one to do it. Fascinating stuff, well done. Paula Barrett (Cuthbert-how mean is my valley)

Dear JC,

Many thanks for your advice - changes have been made.

Welcome aboard, R.H. This website will improve your writing craft, if you allow it. I'll be your second comment. You have to think of your pitches as your sales tool to grab the casual reader's eyes. The short pitch TELLS instead of SHOWS. With the long pitch, break it down into smaller paragraphs so it reads faster. You may wanna end it with one succinct question to pique interest. Perfecting your pitches is how you climb in ranking to gather more exposure and comments to better your novel. The writing is good so I am SHELVING you.

Though I have been a very active member for over a year, I can still use your comments on my book when you get the chance. Every little bit helps. Cheers!

Dear Susie,

Thank you for your kind review - very much appreciated.

Dear R.H., I love fantasy - it helps me to escape from my own predicaments. :) I have lupus (it's inmy memoir) & feel like a vampire has sucked my blood out during the night because I'm so weak, I can hardly get out of bed in the morning. Before I began to read your book, I was prepared by your recap/pitch,which was very well done. Your story is good because you create interest by having short paragraphs & lots of dialogue, which makes me want to keep reading to find out what's going to happen next. I'm "backing" your book to help it advance - this will help yours & mine move up on the charts. :) Could you please return the favor by taking a moment to "back" my TWO memoir books, "He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not" & my completed memoir unedited version? "Tell Me True Love Stories," which tells at the end my illness now & 6th abusive marraiage." Thanks, Susie :)
p.s. Remember: Every "backing" you do moves your book & the other person's book closer to the top. :)
