Melissa, this is Jonathan Janz. I liked The Black Castle, but wait'll you read The Face That Must Die (if you haven't read it yet). It and The Doll Who Ate Its Mother are two of the best horror novels ever, though they're completely different kinds of books.
TFTMD, particularly, affected me. When you read Campbell's foreword, you'll be moved; then, when you read the book that comes after, you'll feel gut-punched.
I haven't read either of them yet. I can't wait to read The Face That Must Die now! I hope they publish it soon.... I haven't read The Doll Who Ate Its Mother either, so I'll have to check that one out too.
Hello, this is Matt Bechtel (Production Manager at Necon E-Books). I know I'm a bit late in discovering your blog, Melissa, but thank you so much for the kind write-up! A few things have changed since we launched our company back in August:
1) All of our titles have come down in price to $4.99.
2) We decided to suspend the Book Club because there was a potential conflict with some of our distribution outlets (they demand consistent pricing, and we wanted to make our titles readily available to as large of an audience as possible).
We've also announced a LOT of new titles, so please check out our site at www.neconebooks.com to browse our full selection.
Thanks again, Melissa; keep up the great work on your blog!
Sincerely,
- Matt Bechtel
