Whispers from the Dead of Night - The Deluxe Collection
FOREWORD
Are you sitting comfortably, the fire crackling, a mug of cocoa in hand? Then let us begin…
It gives me great pleasure to introduce this deluxe collection of all my supernatural stories to date. Ever since I was a child, I have adored omnibuses, collections and boxsets. What could possibly be better than not just one book, but multiple books collected in one special edition or packaging? Amongst my prized possessions are included many such collections of works of some of my favourite authors. Long have I dreamt of presenting my own collected works, to celebrate having achieved a dream.
"Whispers from the Dead of Night" was originally conceived as such a collection – to collect three seasonal supernatural novellas along with three or four bonus short stories. But both "Whispers from the Dead of Night" and "Bitten" expanded as I worked on them, the former into an independent seven story collection and the latter into a full-length novel.
Yet, still I pondered releasing an omnibus edition featuring all four books. "Whispers from the Dead of Night – The Deluxe Collection" is the result, including novellas "Alone" and "The Jack O’Lantern Men" and novel "Bitten" alongside the original seven short stories and brand new short story "Will o’ the Wisp".
The journey to this collection from the original conception of "Alone" has been a long one; one I could not have achieved without the unending support of my readers. Your feedback consistently keeps me going. Special mention must go to my family and friends – amongst you, my first readers and those that provided me with my first feedback across all eleven of these stories. Thank you too to my cover designers for the fantastic work on all eight covers ("A Deathly Shade of Pale" and ‘"Twas the Night Before Christmas" having also been released separately digitally).
For those of you who have read some or all of these stories before, I hope you enjoy once again coming on this journey with me. For anyone who has found this collection anew, I hope you enjoy this bumper selection.
Thank you. I appreciate each and every one of you. This is for you.
