Today it’s a pleasure to share an interview with Edgar Swamp, the authors book Amber Hollow definitely sounds like my kind of read. It’s described asnew mystery blends horror and fantasy in white-hot thriller centered on cursed Wisconsin villageSAN DIEGO, California. SAN DIEGO, Calif. – Edgar Swamp’s new novel turns the classic detective mystery on its head by mixing elements of horror and fantasy into an epic page-turner. The isolated village, fiery tragedy, and ancient curse of Amber Hollow will keep even the most seasoned mystery reader guessing. I wanted to create a story enshrouded in mystique, one that would keep readers guessing as I gradually doled out misinformation, capping it off with a wildly unpredictable ending.

Their plight raises themes of classism and injustice; the story includes brutal examples of corruption. Though they fall into tropes, the novel’s women show strength in the face of oppression, and they come to represent the reclamation of power. Sweet Shots of Steam stories by Penelope Gerhardt are short, cute, and spicy. Perfect for the reader who doesn’t have time to skip to the good parts.

How do modern-day political and social climates affect your writing?

With a dead suspect and nothing else to go on, the two detectives must learn the secrets of Amber Hollow before anyone else becomes victim to its curse. With each new novel, I endeavour to be more efficient with my character development and pacing, always keeping the story moving. I try to grow and learn with each book, seeing what worked for readers and (most importantly) what didn’t. Know who your target audience is, and give them what they want. Reading books by great writers helps, so it’s best to keep up with your reading, no matter how much you want to write. And re-writes are essential; that’s a constant for me.

An unconventional horror story by design, Edgar Swamp delivers an action-driven page-turner that will keep readers guessing until the calamitous ending. Making matters worse, the five survivors contradict each other with wild stories and accusations. Only one detail connects their testimonies –– that the mayor, Anthony Guntram, is to blame.

Psychologically, horror stories can take you through a fiendishly nightmarish landscape, so by proxy, your own problems seem insignificant in comparison. And fear is a very motivating feeling, so it’s best to embrace it by confronting your demons. By delving into this darkness, one inevitably becomes stronger in the process. These ratings mean that the book was just horrible and we could not finish it at all.

I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Would not read the book again if given the chance. These ebooks can only be redeemed by recipients in the India. The story is first narrated from Jeremy’s perspective, in a way that builds empathy for him when his loyalty is questioned by others.

A novel is never finished until I’m at least 95 percent certain that it’s done (there is no 100 percent for me, unfortunately, I feel I could always do something better). All of my ideas are inspired by the modern-day social and political climates in which I am writing them; I simply can’t help it. Who doesn’t enjoy reading/watching the bloated, sleazy politician falling into a bed of hypodermic syringes before being eaten alive by mutants? In fiction, we get to shape how we want to see the world, maybe try and make it a better place by giving the average person the satisfaction they most likely won’t get in real life. And by writing about these themes, at least they are being talked about.

Who Has Amber Hollow in their shelves?

Almost all of the inhabitants of Amber Hollow just died in a mysterious fire, and the survivors’ stories don’t match up. Still, the truth is even stranger than their lies. As Sadie and Jeremy unravel the secrets of the isolated town, they experience supernatural events that they can’t explain.
