2-Day Freebies: Horror, Urban Fantasy, Sci-fi

[Sam Best]

Good morning mobileread forums.

I'm making all 4 of my ebooks (1 novel and 3 short stories) FREE today and tomorrow (March 15th-16th).

Check em out before it's too late!

A brief run-down:


ASHES (novel - urban/dark fantasy, horror)

On the run from the most violent mobster in town, Thomas Marks takes a job driving a mysterious boy halfway across the country. The boy is promising him enough money to settle his debts…but at what cost?

The boy carries a jar filled with his brother’s ashes and claims they are the key to protecting all of mankind. He says that a terrible war is on the horizon—an epic battle between good and evil that will affect the entire planet.

When the mobster who’s been leaving a trail of corpses in his wake shows up possessed with an otherworldly strength and demands the ashes, Thomas is forced to choose between helping the boy…and saving his own life.


LONELY HAIR (short - horror, humor)

Daniel has to cut his long hair for a promising new corporate job, but every night while he sleeps the homesick hair crawls back and reattaches itself to his head.


A DREAM OF WAKING (short - sci-fi)

In the future, unsuspecting members of society are captured and entombed in plastic life-support coffins. They sleep for years at a time while their dreams are harvested as raw energy so that the rich can stay awake indefinitely.

Paying tribute to the mind-bending style of Philip K. Dick, “A Dream of Waking” is the haunting tale of a man in the distant future who must fight to escape an offworld medical cruiser where thousands of innocent people are forced to sleep forever.


FROM THE DEPTHS (short - horror)

Paul Edgefield doesn’t believe in anything that can’t be seen by his own two eyes. When something evil swims up from the depths of the earth and takes over the tanks at the old water facility where Paul has worked for 25 years, he is forced to confront a malevolent creature hell-bent on destroying his soul.

With a hint of H.P. Lovecraft, “From the Depths” imagines a monster straight from our nightmares. It swims in the dark places of this world, surfacing to prey on the minds of its victims.

That's it for now. Thanks for stopping by! Hope at least one of these entertains you for a while.
