Feel free to forward the following announcement wherever appropriate.

The Horror Book Club, hosted by the Friends of Bookshare:

http://www.friendsofbookshare.org

meets monthly to gab about all things horror. Our discussions take place in the Friends of Bookshare Community Chat Room, which can be found at:

http://conference321.com/masteradmin/room.asp?id=rs7867a2369e0e

The chat room supports both voice and text chat, and all are welcome, regardless of which medium you prefer to use. Each month, we place one lucky book under our friendly microscope, and then we crawl into the story and have a blast discussing its merits, flaws, and everything in between.

On February 28th, at 6:00 p.m. Pacific, and 9:00 p.m. Eastern time, our focus will turn to a novel entitled November Mourns, by Tom Piccirilli. Here's a brief overview of the story: Two years ago Shad Jenkins went to prison for assaulting his sister's attacker. Now he has returned to the southern mountain town of Moon Run Hollow, only to find that Megan is dead. No one knows how she died - or why she was found on Gospel Trail Road, a dirt path leading up to the gorge high above the Chatalaha River, where victims of yellow fever were once brought to die.

Navigating a world filled with abnormal children and clandestine snake handlers, one that is slowly being poisoned by illegal moonshine, Shad must pierce the townsfolk's superstitions and terrible secrets to find out the truth about his sister's death. But the Blood Dreams he's suffered from since childhood have taken on an eerie urgency, revealing to Shad the nightmarish form of an unseen adversary. Plagued by the wraiths that haunt the hollow, Shad finds himself increasingly unsure of his own sanity as he begins to piece together what may have happened to his sister - and who exactly his enemy is...
