Now Taking Pre-Orders for the Hardcover Edition of Katja from the Punk Band by Simon Logan

Pre-orders for Katja from the Punk Band can now be made at Horror Mall.

Katja, like everyone else stuck on the work island they call home, wants to get to the mainland by any means necessary. Shooting her boyfriend and stealing a chemical vial is one way to ensure her safe passage—the only problem is, she’s not the only one who wants it, and the freedom it will bring.

Katja from the Punk Band is a fast-paced industrial crime-thriller that weaves multiple storylines and timeframes.

PRE-ORDERS MUST BE PLACED BY JANUARY 31, 2010

Now Taking Pre-Orders for the Hardcover Edition of A Book of Tongues by Gemma Files

Pre-orders for A Book of Tongues can now be made at Horror Mall.

Two years after the Civil War, Pinkerton agent Ed Morrow has infiltrated the dangerous outlaw gang led by "Reverend" Asher Rook, ex-Confederate chaplain turned "hexslinger." Morrow's goal: determine the extent of Rook's power.

Through an unholy marriage-oath with the Mayan-Aztec goddess Ixchel, mother of all hanged men, Rook has been chosen to raise her bloodthirsty pantheon from its collective grave through sacrifice, destruction, and apotheosis. And Rook has a mind to shatter the law that prevents wizards from working together.

Morrow's only hope lies with Rook's lieutenant and lover: Chess Pargeter. But Morrow and Chess must literally ride through Hell to find the doom written for the entire world in A Book of Tongues.
