There's a Supernatural Suspense Story Bundle available at storybundle.com

Curated by Steven Savile
Suspense comes in all flavors and stripes. Though they are often sloughed off onto the horror genre, Supernatural Suspense novels have become a staple of the genre-bending best-sellers. Authors like Stephen King and Dean Koontz have entrenched themselves in this sub-genre, and over the years an impressive group of talented authors have added their words, and their visions to the mix.
This Supernatural Suspense bundle is curated by Award-winning author, poet, and now publisher David Niall Wilson, who has been writing since the late 1980s and has well over thirty books of his own.
Of this bundle, Wilson says:
"I was very pleased to be afforded the opportunity to choose some of my favorite novels and authors and present their work in such an affordable and unique manner. In a suspense novel, the reader basically knows what's going on – most of the mystery is pushed aside in lieu of eventful moments, fast action, harrowing escapes, and the imminent threat of something very bad happening. What I love best is that sort of a plot with either full-blown dark fantasy, or at least the hint – the question – of something supernatural behind the threat. It heightens the suspense, and though – like most thrillers – the reader is mostly aware of the threat from an early point in the story, there is always the chance that something evil and beyond the control of the protagonist, hero, or whatever character experiences it that will change the outcome completely.
Rather than choose books with a common theme, or style, what I strove for in this grouping is variety. These novels range from those where the supernatural is more in the minds of the characters, as in Elizabeth Massie's Bram Stoker Award-Winning Sineater to – in the case of Clive Barker's Weaveworld – a complete divergence into another realm. – David Niall Wilson
The initial titles in the bundle (minimum $3 to purchase) are:
• Reign by Chet Williamson
• Second Soul by Thomas Sullivan
• On the Third Day by David Niall Wilson
• Incursion by Aaron Rosenberg
• Moonbane by Al Sarrantonio
If you pay more than the bonus price of just $12, you'll get another five books:
• Weaveworld by Clive Barker
• Nightlife by Brian Hodge
• Sineater by Elizabeth Massie
• Skorpio by Mike Baron
• Night of Broken Souls by Thomas F. Monteleone
The bundle is available for a very limited time only, via http://www.storybundle.com. It allows easy reading on computers, smartphones, and tablets as well as Kindle and other ereaders via file transfer, email, and other methods. You get multiple DRM-free formats (.epub and .mobi) for all books, but after the three weeks are over, the bundle is gone forever!
