A beguiling collection of the macabre and supernatural from bestseller B.D. Bruns.  The Ghost of Naked Molly takes us back to old New Orleans on the eve of the Louisiana Purchase, where the ghost of a gorgeous octoroon slave mistress complicates the political schemes of a local grandee by parading around his house in the nude. The Swamp Hive - a fine study of Civil War squalor and carnage - spotlights the Union attack on the Confederate stronghold Fort Henry. A timid rebel cook discovers something even grislier than the usual horrors of war: ghouls feeding off the dead... and the living. Blue Caribou visits the crew of a ship stuck in the Arctic ice in 1859 as they slowly go mad from hunger. The ultimate solution - prompted by a stitched, velveteen toy wolf - gives a completely new twist on survival of the fittest.  Wax and Wayne is about a man who comes into a restaurant every day to gulp down vast quantities at the shrimp buffet, while his forlorn waitress seems to gain weight on his behalf. Here Bruns achieves a delightful balance of whimsy and the grotesque, with a glimmer of moonstruck romance.

Language: English. Brand new Book. From Reader's Favorite Reviews The Gothic Shift is a macabre collection of four darkly twisted novellas that are sure to intrigue, thrill, and spook even the bravest reader. Reminiscent of classic Gothic horror stories by the likes of Edgar Allan Poe, it is Bruns' style of writing that is most pleasing. "I found this book to be an extreme delight. Bruns builds each piece with subtle tension rather than in your face horror. But do not misunderstand that statement, the horror is very real. Do yourself a favor and pick this one up." -Horror Novel Reviews "Atmosphere defines Bruns' Gothic Shift. I enjoyed the subtleties of this collection. The stories in this volume are little nibbles at the edges of your mind. Recommended."-Hellnotes "A juicy collection of stories, with some great character development and a lot of original ideas. Recommended!"-Horror After Dark The Chronicorium novels are written to stand alone but may also be enjoyed as part of the larger series. Enter the mystique anywhere and discover the paranormal everywhere. The characters are rich and unique, the settings diverse and vivid, and the paranormal disturbingly familiar. "This man has seen it all!" - Deborah Roberts, ABC 20/20 "Bruns' prose . proves his steady and deliberate writing voice." - Writer's Digest "Bruns has tension building down to an art form. I was squirming in my seat to find out what would happen in the end." - Reader's Favorite Reviews "Bruns. creates well-imagined, realistic settings for his lively characters." - Kirkus Reviews "Bruns has created a brilliant novel here. He mixes horror, love story, and detailed descriptions of a beautiful historical setting with a perfect balance." - Critical Blast "This story is a good, scary, Gothic style haunting story. Bruns has started slow and built up the creepy sensation to a bursting point. The war hero trying desperately to save his younger sister from the evil. The young fisherman fighting to save the girl he loves. The priest who knows the secret but is unable to tell." - Reader Review "Bruns builds with a subtle tension rather than in your face horror." - Horror Novel Reviews "A literary masterpiece filled with depth and intrigue, veiled in an atmosphere of darkness with barely a sliver of hope left, Leviathan yanked me in, held me spellbound, then dropped me back into reality feeling changed, and not quite ready to leave, it is that good." -Tome Tender "Great character development and a lot of original ideas." - Horror After Dark "The descriptions in the book made me feel like I was actually in 19th century Italy. The village of Amalfi came to life for me, along with its characters." - Reader Review "I loved Grapaldi, who Giuseppe thinks of as a troll living in the darkness beneath the mill. Blind and ancient in years he's wise and perceptive, bringing light to the mystery that haunts the Apuzzo family." - Reader Review "It's a story that is solidly based on psychological horror as such, it provides a powerful blend of images and experiences that rely on well-developed protagonists and settings steeped in historical background and different acts of courage. Literary fans of the horror genre will find it an absorbing story that sacrifices light predictability for depth and solid development, making In the House of Leviathan a standout." - Midwest Book Review.
