I tried to read a book by one of our contributors here, but found it to be absolutely horrible in execution. (No pun intended.)

Diplomacy (and being a Moderator here), forbids me in naming this horrible novel. All I can say is this: AVOID IT BY ALL MEANS.

The next best thing I can do is to tell you to beware (and be wary of) a writer of occult/horror fiction who frequently sells the book for less than retail. (Of course, the retail is a jacked-up price, anyway.) The rest you'll have to figure out for yourself. There's a lot of self-published trash being circulated now, and readers must be careful. There's also a lot of self-published gems being published, and readers must be just as careful in deciding what to read in that area.

Be aware....or be afraid, but not because it's supposed to be a horror novel....
