Paula’s review –

Absolutely Brilliant, October 20, 2013

By 

Paula Limbaugh

This review is from: Restless Souls: 3 dark fables (Kindle Edition)

Thomas Rydder is relatively new to the publishing world. Restless Souls is his second book and shows that Mr. Rydder is no “one trick pony.” The three stories are unique and dark. It’s hard to say which was favored, they are all equally good…

My new ghost story anthology “Restless Souls: 3 Dark Fables” is coming out this weekend! And I need some willing blogs – also…

I am re-releasing my debut werewolf thriller “The Clearing“, as well. A number of reviews commented (negatively) on one particular aspect of the book, so I corrected those areas, and now it’s better than ever!

So. Here are the books. I’d love to do some blog stops to promote them, so if you’re interested, let’s talk – and I’ll be happy to trade you stop-for-stop, or perhaps a review in exchange.

Any takers?

Book Description:

After twenty years in the Marine Corps, Major Frank Cutlip comes home to the quiet hills of his beloved Pennsylvania to take up a new life as the sheriff of Allegheny County.

Professor Beth Lowe took up a post at Paxton University because she became enamored with western Pennsylvania’s charms, a more enduring love than she thought she would ever feel for a man.

When Beth’s dog is savaged by wolves, their peaceful lives are shattered, and their fates entwined. On the brink of death, the dog not only survives but grows larger… and more vicious. A thousand-year cycle of carnage is reaching its climax once more, and the peaceful wooded hills will soon be smeared with blood.

Sheriff Cutlip leads his community in a hunt for the hidden terror, but then his own brother is bitten, his blood corrupted by the ancient evil. The
sheriff must confront terrible choices, and he can’t do so alone.

‘The Clearing’ — a novel of ordinary people thrown together in extraordinary circumstances.

Book Descriptions:

1. “Do Unto Others” (short story) – Jeremy is a street hood, lawless and unchained. When he is wronged by a local businessman, it becomes his mission to seek revenge. But his new enemy has friends – ones that don’t take kindly to intruders.

2. “Colors” (short story) – Harrison Street. attorney, biker wannabe, coward. When he finds the bike of his dreams, it seems too good to be true. It is.

3. “Simona Says” (novella) – Simona has had it rough. Death, disenchantment, and disappointment are all part of her life. She wants to be happy for a change, and she’s willing to do just about anything to find some. Anything.

 

It’s that time again – I need a Beta team :)

Now that “The Clearing” is up and running, I’ve turned my attention to my next work – an anthology of three ghosts stories. It’s two short stories and a novella, with lengths of 7,000, 11,5000 and 25,000 words, respectively. 

You can read any one of them, or all three. I want to get at least 10 sets of eyes on each – and I want criticism, not flattery. 

In acknowledgement of your efforts, you’ll receive a published-grade copy of my book, and the entire team will have their names listed in the front of the book 🙂

So…can anyone help me out?

Please leave a comment if you’re interested 🙂
