Ye Olde Dragon Books takes a classic movie monster and invites participating authors to turn the trope "on its ear."
Whether it's just the general idea, or particular details in the lore created by Hollywood, these stories will amaze and entertain, make you shiver and jump at shadows, and keep looking over your shoulder when no one is there -- and sometimes laugh aloud, as well as say, "Hmmm .... what if .....?"
What if the monster was a victim? What if the monster wasn't monstrous, but kind of cute and cuddly? What if the beauty was the beast? What if the werewolf was the hero? Etcetera .....
Join us every fall with a new monster, a new collection of fantastical imaginings.
COMING OCTOBER 15:
WHO’S THE MONSTER?
A child saved from a car crash insists a scarred man pulled her out, earning the moniker Monster Girl. Was there a monster or did she imagine her savior?
A not-so-scary haunted house turns into a true house of horrors for three young people.
Step back in time to watch a man, a computer, and … a virus!
A young girl runs from an abusive father and finds a different kind of monster.
An enchanted castle is under attack from a patchwork monster and our heroes must find the elusive, ticked-off sorcerer who can stop his creation before it tears apart their home.
Inside, you’ll explore a wide assortment of mad scientists and their failed experiments – or successes, if you prefer to see it that way. Some will thrill, some will chill. A few will make you laugh or maybe shed a tear.
But who IS the Monster? You decide.
Even better: If you go to Ye Olde Dragon Books, between now and October 16, you can SAVE $$$ buying directly, both print and ebook!
