Thanks for reading or helping and my name is Francis.
In Sigler's riveting horror thriller, alien seeds from outer space infect a number of unlucky humans, who develop some unusual symptoms—itchy, blue triangular growths on their skin—that eventually result in the carriers becoming screaming, homicidal maniacs. CIA agent Dew Phillips must find out why these formerly docile citizens are running amok, aided by Margaret Montoya, a Centers for Disease Control epidemiologist, who reported the first of the strange cases. One of the infected, former football player Perry Dawsey, doesn't take any crap from anybody, not even the aliens residing in his body. Sigler (Ancestor) leads the reader from one startling detail to the next—the creatures learn to speak (feed us we hungry); they grow little black eyes—until even hardened genre fans will find themselves whimpering at each new revelation. This terrifying page-turner could be the author's breakout book, fueled by an extensive online podcast campaign.

No idea, good luck figuring out who it is. A mystery, but the book sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteAlways good to receive some freebie :)
ReplyDeleteThe kindness of strangers, I guess. Nice.
ReplyDeleteWell it's not me but good luck with this mystery.
ReplyDeleteHow strange?? Great though!!
ReplyDeleteAlways nice!
ReplyDeleteWasn't he the guy in charge of lighting at the last con?
ReplyDeleteI got a similar mystery upgrade to my account at TMP late last year - I was well chuffed at my mysterious benefactor. Good to know the good karma gets shared too!
ReplyDeleteThat's cool. I read that book last year, couldn't put it down. Sucks it's not available, definitely worth the read.
ReplyDeletedidn't you win this book over at Budd's SCI FI blog? I think I was present there :)
ReplyDelete@DEZMOND: Tell me more.

Here's Budd's address:

he even bought two more books himself since there were five contestants and he was giving away three books so he didn't want those two to be left out!
ReplyDeleteoh, sorry. It was me. didn't think about amazon sending it from my birth name. I actually go by Budd in real life though. You actually signed up for the drawing.
ReplyDeleteso, you can't access the book? I didn't think about having a world wide audience.
Congratz on freebie, Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe book looks like a good read.
I once got itchy blue patches on my skin. Taught me never to try and get that "extra kick" by mixing red wine with antifreeze and dettol again. I didn´t notice if my pupils were triangular...I couldn´t see for a couple of days so they might have been.
ReplyDeleteFreebies are always great and this sounds a good un.
Cheers
Paul
I want free stuff! Where do I sign up?
ReplyDeletenot available on my kindle app on itunes, I just finished The Psychopath Test on kindle, it was a good read, but I would still like to have a hard copy to put on my bookshelf.
ReplyDeletecool post thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteFree stuff is always a plus :)
ReplyDeleteNothing in life is free.
ReplyDeleteInteresting synopsis. The football player that takes no crap made me smirk a little.
ReplyDeleteThat's funny, you signed up and don't remember. Brain farts, I'd say.
ReplyDeleteWig says hello. She's being cute as usual. Had her walk and morning nappy nap. Now she's having a snack.
So spoiled, that one.
Damn, it must be nice to have such devoted readers.
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty cool even though you can't use it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome post, thank you!
ReplyDelete+Follow
When is it going to be a movie?
ReplyDeletecool cover at the least.

I don't think I've ever read a horror thriller. Jurassic Park was pretty thrilling and gruesome. And the John Grisham books I've read I think I remember being thrilling. But I've been into fantasy and sci-fi after I grew out of my younger years. I may really have to check this one out. That's awesome that you got hooked up with it. Good deal.
ReplyDeleteYoull find him, the internet is a small place ;)
ReplyDeleteAfter reading this I have to see it.
ReplyDeleteI always thought William Black was the baddy in Captain Scarlet!!!
ReplyDeletecongratulations Fran. Now I am having a brain fart. Reading this makes me think I have read about the book before but not sure where. Who needs drugs when you have senility.
ReplyDeleteyou mean I should be using a fake name! damn it! damn it damn it! from now on I am Rickey Roundfingers
ReplyDeleteI just checked it out. X-men post is pretty cool.
ReplyDeletehello, francis! nice to meet you :)
ReplyDeleteReally sounds cool! Nice that you found him as well.
ReplyDeleteChristopher
I'll check him out for sure :D
ReplyDeleteEven if you found it yourself this diverse crowd has the power of a dynamo.
ReplyDeleteSome parts are probably true with some twisting so the trick is figuring out which parts.
no complaints with free stuff, looks like a good read!
ReplyDeleteyeah, good old willie black. Hes a godsend eh?
ReplyDeleteHe's got a pretty nice blog actually, I've been perusing it a bit. The description of the story sounds almost like Morgellon's disease that has sprung up in Florida and Texas. You should Google it or look for some videos on YouTube... Pretty creepy stuff.
ReplyDeleteThat is an awesome novel and the second one gets even better.
