One of the best opening lines imho: "I can't kill somebody who's already dead." On-sale today: Thelma & Louise meets Interview with the Vampire and so much more.
"I can’t kill somebody who’s already dead." American Ghoul combines historical vampire horror with tight social commentary about race and class the a post-Civil War American South. You can read an excerpt from @askdelta8's biting new novel now! reactormag.com/excerpts-amer…

Just gonna share this glowing review from…the @nytimes!!!! “It is in Iglesias’ stark, authoritative, sometimes surprisingly beautiful descriptions of the grit and pessimism of urban Puerto Rico that his prose turns electric.” nytimes.com/2024/08/08/books…

House of Bone and Rain is out today! A very personal novel. An emotional release. I wanted to talk about friendship and being dumb and extreme violence and colonialism and Borikén and monsters and magic. Hope you dig it and a million thanks for reading. 🖤 amazon.com/gp/aw/d/031642701…

Happy pub day to John Fram and NO ROAD HOME. It’s a Gothic ghost story, a locked-room thriller, and a heartrending indictment of prejudice and corruption wrapped in a mystery as twisted as the family at its center. More than anything, it’s great—and it’s in bookstores today!
