A great review of my book The Demon Seeds, was just published by Eddie at Unnerving Magazine.
Here’s an excerpt:
Derek Muk writes in a horror style that is one part mystery, one part thriller, with a sprinkling of gore. His style is somewhere between Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Mary Higgins Clark. It’s lively and fast in a way that thoroughly covers the important points while skipping most character backgrounds.
For the full review, follow the link below.
Thanks, Eddie!
