- A classic 80's horror in the style of Stephen King -
In Port Blossom, silence is a memory.'
A relentless, malevolent gale screams from the Howling Maw, stripping the town of its paint, its hope, and its sanity. The residents don't run anymore; they just wait to erode.
Jax knows this storm is different. His shattered leg aches with a warning no barometer can match. Seeking sanctuary, he seals himself and four friends inside a reinforced basement, desperate to wait out the apocalypse raging above.
But the concrete walls are a lie.
When the group's shortwave radio crackles to life, it doesn't bring news of the weather. It emits a wet, rhythmic static. It sounds like labored breathing. It sounds hungry.
The storm isn't just outside anymore. And now that it has found a voice, it wants to be let in.
"This is a high-quality, atmospheric horror manuscript that is market-ready. The author possesses a remarkable talent for sensory description, transforming the setting of Port Blossom into a menacing character in its own right. The narrative effectively subverts the nostalgic 'kids on bikes' trope by injecting it with a bleak, Lovecraftian nihilism rather than Spielbergian wonder. The emotional resonance of the trauma and the refusal to provide a 'happy' ending make this a standout piece of fiction. It reads like a cross between Stephen King's 'It' and a natural disaster thriller." - Review
