Weeping Season

<p>Review\n"Fast, thrilling, and brutal, Weeping Season leaves you gasping for breath. O'Connor's prose is sharp and lean, and he has a great eye for the grisly. Thoroughly recommended."-- Tim LebbonNew York Times bestselling author of The Silence\n"A fast-paced read you'll devour in one or two sittings. The action and horrors are relentless, and you'll never see the ending coming. Bleak, terrifying, and thoroughly entertaining."-- Philip FracassiAward-winning author of Behold the Void\n"O'Connor's Weeping Season grips the reader in madness and uncertainty from page one and never lets go. A sinister mystery unfolding fast and hard in the woods, a group of scared, wounded people left with nothing but fragments of memory, Weeping Season gets under your skin like a chill and carries you along in its icy tide. Read it and shiver."-- Mary SanGiovanniBram Stoker Award-nominated author of Behind the Door\n"O'Connor presents Weeping Season, a novel drawn from the same realm as Black Mirror and The Outer Limits, but with a brutality normally reserved for the Splatterpunk genre. Weeping Season functions as an adult exploration of what exactly it means to be human and humane in the face of uncompromising and brutal cruelty. For a generation of teens raised on the likes of The Hunger Games, Weeping Season returns to familiar territory but with a wicked sensibility reserved for mature readers."-- Peter RawlikAuthor of The Peaslee Papers: A Lovecraftian Chronicle\n"I often wonder what it would be like to go back in time and say, 'I reviewed/just read the debut title from author Stephen King...or Dean R. Koontz...or Ramsey Campbell...or Peter Straub...or Anne Rice'... The opportunity to be there from ground zero with a work from a writer bound for stardom in their field is a great feather in the cap of a reader or reviewer -- the chance to claim you were there from the start. That is exactly how I felt while reading Weeping Season."-- HellNotes, ★★★★★\nIn the spirit of Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror and The Twilight Zone comes Weeping Season - an unsettling, suspenseful chiller that leaves you gasping for breath...\nA group of strangers wake up in a cold isolated forest with no memory of anything before their arrival. Lost, hungry and wandering aimlessly, they are summoned to a campsite by a remote entity who controls their fate through a series of tortuous objectives. Their only hope for survival is either escape from the psychological game reserve, known as Block 18, or face mortality at the hands of its maniacal moderator, who loves nothing more than watch his participants suffer.</p>
