one more day of relentless darkness

Martuk … The Holy will be finishing up his first ever sale tomorrow (Monday).

So if you haven’t picked up one of the Highlights of 2012 yet, take a look at what others have said (full reviews at links):

“mesmerizing” prose and a “tale imbued with a relentless darkness and an intoxicating sensuality” … A HIGHLIGHT OF THE YEAR — The 2012 Papyrus Independent Fiction Awards

“Martuk … the Holy is a very dark and fantastical tale where angels and demons blend together; where violence and sexuality are entwined and madness and clarity are confused.” — Caleb Blake, Papyrus Independent Author Reviews

“holy mother of sweet Jesus … the book grabs you from the first sentence and doesn’t let go … my heartbeat is still not entirely back to its normal pace” – Megan Broutian, meganblogs

Martuk: voted one of the best

Just learned that uber-reviewer Caleb Blake has included Martuk … The Holy on a very small select Highlights of 2012 list.

It’s kind of amazing when you start your day with someone calling your work “a tale imbued with a relentless darkness and an intoxicating sensuality.”

And to sit there next to NYTimes Bestselling Author Hugh Howey of Wool? (yep, he made the list, too) Incredible. 🙂
