Late Nite Treat for Halloween Readers

Here's a late night freebie for those of you still haunting the internet tonight. Gryphonwood Press's Dark Places- A Gryphonwood Anthology is $0.99 in the Kindle store and is free at Smashwords tonight, using coupon code AD94N during checkout.

Book Description

I just found this free music sampler tonight, as well: Experience Halloween: A Tunecore Music Sampler. I'm not sure how good it is, but is anything scarier sounding than Someone Gave Me Health Food On Halloween?

Darkness Under the Sun ($1.59), by Dean Koontz, is a novella that offers a glimpse of the killer in his upcoming What the Night Knows ($13.61 pre-order).

Book Description
The chilling account of a pivotal encounter between innocence and ultimate malice, Darkness Under the Sun is the perfect read for Halloween—or for any haunted night—and reveals a secret, fateful turning point in the career of Alton Turner Blackwood.

There once was a killer who knew the night, its secrets and rhythms. How to hide within its shadows. When to hunt.

He roamed from town to town, city to city, choosing his prey for their beauty and innocence. His cruelties were infinite, his humanity long since forfeit. But still . . . he had not yet discovered how to make his special mark among monsters, how to come fully alive as Death.

This is the story of how he learned those things, and of what we might do to ensure that he does not visit us.
