Buy on Amazon


** Limited Edition Boxed Set ** 


How does the world die? Join these award-winning and bestselling authors for seven tales of the apocalypse. Zombies rise, aliens attack, and vampires claim the dying world in this post-apocalyptic boxed set. In this collection, our authors share their horrific visions of the undead world. Ready for exciting new twists on tales of the walking dead? Over 1000 pages of dystopian, horror, dark fantasy, post-apocalyptic, and zombie tales! 


THE HARVESTING: It’s all fun and games until someone ends up undead. Just when Layla believes she might survive the undead apocalypse, a sinister and ancient force seeks to finish mankind for good. 

ODIUM: Nina’s life was irrevocably changed when humanity’s dead began to rise. Now, she lives behind the walls. The barricaded cities, erected by the government to protect the remnants of civilization, have become a brutal dictatorship- causing the inhabitants within to starve, steal and claw for survival. 

UNDOING: THE GOOD, THE DEAD, AND THE LAWLESS: When a widespread infection sweeps the nation, reanimating victims into walking corpses with an insatiable hunger for human flesh, future FBI agent Haven Janero struggles to keep her loved ones safe amidst the bloodbath. Teaming up with other survivors as society crumbles and lawlessness and chaos take over, they must fight hordes of ravenous zombies… and a dangerous enemy from the past who is hell-bent on seeking twisted vengeance. 

SANCTUARY: In a heart-racing thriller described as Falling Skies meet The Walking Dead, Jennie struggles to find a safe place for what’s left of her family. First the aliens attacked the sun, then they attacked the water supply, killing one-third of Earth’s population with a bitter contaminate, and when they unleash a new terror on humankind, the victims will wish for death, but will not find it… 

Z CHILDREN: AWAKENING: Our kids are no longer our future… They’re our demise. Enter Z Children: Awakening—a world where toddlers and tweens have graduated from bubble baths to blood baths. 

INDEADPENDANCE DAY: Trapped in a small town during a zombie outbreak, can Rachel survive? Aided by two soldiers, she fights to keep her little cousin safe and make it to a safe zone. 

MIDWAY: Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, for the beginning of the end. Carnie. Ride jockey. Roustabout. White trash. Tilt girl. Gypsy. Cricket has been called a lot of things, but she never thought survivor of the zombie apocalypse would be one of them.

Out of the Dark is OUT NOW!!!

It's here! It's out! And from what I can tell, you're all loving it *throws glitter*


It's a funny thing, releasing a new book. On one hand you're so nervous you
want to throw up on your own shoes​, and on the other, you're so damned excited for people to be able to finally read your work.

For those of you who have read the book, or are in the process of reading it,
you'll see that I dedicated this book to my children. I did this not because they were ​supportive as I slaved away writing the book. And not because they brought me tea and cupcakes in abundance in their quest to help me. No, it was dedicated to them because it's my love for them that enabled me to write it.
The love a mother and child share is the purest form of love imaginable.
It comes from somewhere deep inside you, a secret place that is unlocked
the moment that you become a parent.​
​And it was my love for my children, and the horror that I would feel if I was in 'mamas' position that helped me to write this story. It was my love for my children that pushed me on when, as is inevitable for a writer, I hit that part where I thought the story sucked and I shouldn't continue with it.

I hope that a part of you connected with 'mama' too.

Big love

Claire

Ps. Sorry if I broke your heart again, but ya' know...it was always inevitable really.

Are you getting excited yet? I am. 
This story means so much to me. It's a funny thing writing a book. All of your stories are special to you, and it's always nerve-wracking when you release them into the world with a hefty kick out of the front door and a wave goodbye 'so long story, be strong, they're going to love you!'
But sometimes a particular story will just get you. The words flow from your fingers like magic, and whilst you're excited for people to read it, you also want to keep it to yourself because you know that it's special.
This is that story for me.​​
Enjoy todays diary entry, and don't forget to enter and share the giveaway!​

Book SALE!!

1/5/2016

Firstly, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!
​I hope that you all have a wonderful day with your friends, family and loved ones!


Secondly, I have a book sale! Hurray, I hear you say :)

​I have Limerence (The Obsession Series) on sale at the moment. So if you like your vampires, dark, deadly with no sparkles, then this is the one for you.

​I also have Odium 0.5 The Dead Saga on sale. So if you ever wanted to know the Origin of Nina and how she became to be such an ever-loving bitch, then this one is most definitely for you!
​
And lastly, I have just put Out of the Dark on sale. So if end of the world dystopian thrillers with monsters that will have you cowering under the covers in them, then this is the one for you!

​Don't forget that ODIUM IV THE DEAD SAGA is due out in the next two weeks! Whaaaaat? I hear you say. Two freaking weeks??? Yes, two freaking weeks indeed :-D I had hoped to get it our for December 1st, but it's most likely going to be the week after that. I am sorry for the delay, but I want this book to be as perfect as can be for you all. You'll also be happy to know that I have started work on ODIUM V THE DEAD SAGA already, with the hopes of getting it to you by March/April.

At some point I hope to do Odium Origin 3.5 and 4.5 also, but those aren't big sellers, so I'm guessing not as many are interested in these stories. In that respect they won't be my priority going forward into 2017. Though I won't be abandoning them altogether for purely selfish reasons. I adore writing the Origin books lol

​You'll be happy to know that I am halfway through writing Into the Light - the sequel to Out of the Dark. I know I was supposed to have that one out in October, but my writing schedule has taken a nosedive this year. I'm hoping that 2017 will be much more productive!

​Have a wonderful day. Eat, drink, and be thankful.

Lots of love,

Claire

Odium IV The Dead Saga Cover reveal!

1/5/2016

0 Comments

 
​So, here it is, the moment of truth...well, at least a little.
Here's your cover reveal for ODIUM IV THE DEAD SAGA designed by the amazing Wilde Book Designs. She's done a spectacular job of bringing my vision together. I hope that you like.
Thoughts on a postcard, and please don't hate on me too much. After all, you should never judge a book by its cover...

Blurb and Cover reveal



 Date of release: November 30th (TBC)

Synopsis: Odium IV The Dead Saga

The Dead Aren’t the only thing to fear…

A kid, an old lady, and a heartbroken man…what could possibly go wrong?
Mikey is holding true to his promise to Nina, and is doing everything he can to keep the group alive. But when something attacks the threesome in the middle of the night, things begin to take a turn for the worst.

Luckily a new group—the N.E.O.s are on hand to ease Mikey’s burden and help fight alongside him. But first he must prove his worth to the leader Aiken and the people that follow him. Within this new group, Mikey begins to find a form of peace that he didn’t think was possible after losing Nina, and he discovers his place within this new world. A place where killing isn’t for fun, and is only ever committed as a last resort.

His heart is still aching, but at the end of the world there’s no time to stop and mourn, and as he searches out a Circus Freak Show and the horrors begin to stack up around him, Nina slips far from his mind.
​
It’s probably best, because there are many more terrors in store for him. Because within the folds of a small town, inside an old candy store, he meets a woman named Clare, her two dogs and something that he never saw coming.
