“Dear friends and readers, I am happy to announce that my newest novel, TORN, will be released on September 17, 2025!
For those who know me well, you may be thinking to yourself, “Didn’t you say you were done with this whole Books of Furnass enterprise?”
And you would be correct. I was finished once and for all, until a friend said, “Isn’t there more to the story?” Intrigued, I got back to work, and the untold story of John Lincoln Lyle’s disappearance and return to Furnass 20 years later was the result.
Watch for future posts with details about the plots, excerpts of critics' reviews, and our plans to promote the book coming soon.
As always, thank you for your interest and support.”

“Exciting News! BookLife Reviews, a division of Publishers Weekly, has given TORN its “Editor’s Pick” designation, a high honor given to independently published books that are deemed to be of outstanding quality by their editorial team!
Their review said, in part, “This ambitious, vividly detailed, sometimes dense novel demonstrates that Snodgrass knows his patch of America like Faulkner knew Yoknapatawpha or Donald Harrington knew Stay More.”

“This week’s issue of Publisher’s Weekly includes a full-page Q&A about TORN! The intro reads:
“After calling Torn ‘ambitious’ and ‘vividly detailed’ and saying it ‘demonstrates that Snodgrass knows his patch of America like Faulkner knew Yoknapatawpha,’ it’s no wonder BookLife Reviews designated it an Editor’s Pick. We spoke with the author about his long-running series and its historical inspiration.”
