#HorrorForLibraries Giveaway #26: Midnight at the Pentagram [Anthology]

As a reminder I began these giveaways back in April. Click here to  read the first post. Honestly, I see no end to the giveaways.

As a reminder, here are the basic rules to enter:

  1. You need to be affiliated with an American public library. My rationale behind that is that I will be encouraging you to read these books and share them with patrons. While many of them are advanced reader copies that you cannot add to your collections, if you get the chance to read them, my hope is that you will consider ordering a copy for your library and give away the ARC away as a prize or pass it on to a fellow staff member.
  2. If you are interested in being included in any giveaway at any time, you must email me at zombiegrl75 [at] gmail [dot] com with the subject line "#HorrorForLibraries." In the body of the email all you have to say is that you want to be entered and the name of your library.
  3. Each entry will be considered for EVERY giveaway. I will randomly draw a winner on Fridays sometime after 5pm central. But only entries received by 5pm each week will be considered for that  week.
  4. If you win, you are ineligible to win again for 4 weeks; you will have to re-enter after that time to be considered [I have a list of who has won, when, and what title]. However, if you do not win, you carry over into the next week. There is NO NEED to reenter.

This week I have a finished copy of a short story collection featuring well known and up and coming authors put out by one of my approved independent horror publishers for libraries-- Silver Shamrock Publishing. It is entitled Midnight at the Pentagram and you can click through for the full table of contents.


Two authors in particular that I want to point out to library workers right now are Laurel Hightower, whose Crossroads you WILL see on at least one library year end best list, and Catherine Cavendish whose In Darkness, Shadows Breathe I just read for review in January's Library Journal. I was very impressed and will be writing about how wide its appeal is. 


But overall, this is an excellent collection of horror right now. It has representation both in the identity of the writers and in the types of stories they write. Think of it a solid collection from top to bottom. And it is nice and thick, so there is a lot to offer here.


This is a finished copy you can add to your collections. Thanks to Silver Shamrock for sending it to me for giveaway. Consider adding it to your collection whether you win it or not.


Good luck!
