About the author
Essel Pratt
154 books30 followersEssel Pratt is a master of horror and fantasy, conjuring tales that haunt souls and inspire imagination. As a student of psychology and teller of tales, Essel writes to share the complex nature of his imaginings with the world. His ever-expanding catalog of short stories spans multiple anthologies and collections, ranging from whimsical fantasy to bizarre horror, including everything in between. Dedicated fans have praised his creations, labeling his talents as prolific in substance.
Hailing from Mishawaka, Indiana, his passion for writing began in the early years as his imagination taunted from within, begging for a release. Dabbling in art at first, he found that the stories that pleaded to be told could not be imprisoned by ink and paint alone. His most notable and prevalent accomplishments include Final Reverie, Sharkantula, and the multiple short stories that have garnered a following of their own, such as the adventures of Detective Mansfield.
Inspired by C.S. Lewis, Clive Barker, Stephen King, Harper Lee, William Golding, and many more, Essel doesn't restrain his writings to straight horror. His first Novel, Final Reverie is more Fantasy/Adventure, but does include elements of Horror. His first zombie book, The ABC's of Zombie Friendship, attacks the zombie genre from an alternate perspective. Future books, that are in progress and yet to be imagined, will explore the blurred boundaries of horror within its competing genres, mixing the elements into a literary stew.

"Yeti Yearning" by Essel Pratt is a very, very special book. I don't even dare to review it as any other regular title.
What can you expect when you have this book in your hands? We are not used to the concept of "yeti", and belonging to Project 26 (which is an amazing terror book collection project from J. Ellington Ashton Press), you ask yourself "what is this?".
I need to start from the point that Pratt's writing is very pleasurable to read, which makes his books sincerely gratifying to hold. He brings a sugary tone to threads, in a way that he exposes a bloody scene giving you the sensation of watching ballet.
Said that. We can observe on the blurb that the main story consists of a romance, but he goes far beyond that. I won't ruin the story, so I won't talk about the plot. This book gets you underneath the Yeti's fur and his devastating emotions, from arousing to fury, going through sharp abandon and confusion when he discovers our lovely, transgressive girl.
Personally, in Pratt's work, I found a sweet story, a very unconventional, divergent sweet story, out of many reader's safe-zone, which gives us that very needed splash of blood and dark erotism we're expecting. He does.
You don't need to be an erotica fan to like this book, nor a myths hunter or a bloody reader. You only need to feel like enjoying a good afternoon with what is a very good book, that will take you through controversial, suspicious, provoking paths and, want it or not, you will close it with a grin crossing your face.
You didn't expect what the author just provoked in you, but there you are, you and your unpredictable book and a story you will never forget. I'm pretty sure, when Pratt finished the last line, held back the impulse of writing a final "You're welcome."
