Short description

In all the deepest pits and in all the rank, vile dungeons that make up the illusion of Hell, no fiend is more feared than the dread demon, and for good reason. These pitiless monsters feed on bile and blood, they lap up the screams of the damned, they corrupt and destroy and they hate with an unrelenting fury. And to release one upon the world is the ultimate in black sin.

What the readers say about, The Horror of the Shade:
From the first chapter, I was hooked. Creepy!!! Good characters, and a great writing style that makes the book flow from one chapter to the next...

Don't let the title fool you into thinking this is just another ghost story. This book goes much deeper into themes of faith, love, and family. The writing is so descriptive that I felt like I was actually in the house. Which, by the way, is a pretty scary place to be! The imperfections of the characters were balanced by their heroism and goodness, and this is what made them so relatable...

...The characters have depth, and meaning. They are flawed which makes them more believable and infinitely more identifiable. I read this book in two days, blowing off everything else that I had planned for the weekend. If you love a ghost story that goes beyond the paranormal then you will love this tome...
