Victim of Circumstance - 3 Poe Tales Twisted & Spun Into 1 Story (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A highly and unusual humorous horror story consisting of 3 of Edgar Allan Poe stories twisted and woven into 1.

The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart and The Black Cat are the inspiration for this entertaining story. The protagonist swears every bad thing he does is done because he is a victim of circumstance and nothing more.

He is writing a journal the day before he is to be executed for his crimes. The journal is his means of convincing everyone who reads it that he is not and never was a mad man. He is simply a man obsessed with large breasts who is being tortured and driven to the brink of sanity by things that are out of his control.

Knight adds a twist in the way he uses the black cat and the Raven to enhance the story.

Is Lenore a woman sent from the heavens or something else?

Two policemen who do not believe his story but cannot find evidence of a crime.

I dare you to read this story without shaking your head and rolling your eyes and sometimes laughing out loud. You've heard of fractured fairy tales . . . think of this as a fractured horror tale. It's done tongue in cheek and you'll likely be waiting for the authors next such book.

Here is an excerpt . . .

My first wife was named Jeannie. She was gorgeous. I mean I'm talking knock down gorgeous.

I can still remember the day we first met. We took to each other immediately. I had no idea who she was but her eyes were mesmerizing.

I can't remember their color but I was standing in line to get a triple scoop hot fudge brownie sundae when I saw her standing in another line. I forgot about the triple scoop hot fudge brownie sundae and walked over to introduce myself. I couldn't help but stare into those deep something color eyes.

"Are you staring at my breasts?" she asked.

Autorenporträt

I write books for middle grade and young adults. They range from scary to spun fairy tales and more.

Most of the stories, including the scary ones, are basically fantasy tales. YOu need to have an open mind when you read them. :-)

That's one of the reasons I enjoy writing for the younger audience. I really think it's also why many adults are reading these types of books. To escape reality.
