Bøker av Randy Chandler

Dark forces are afoot in Vinewood, Georgia, a deceptively sleepy town where the dead don't stay dead and a sinkhole is as sinister as it is deadly. Violent events both natural and supernatural build to a chaotic crescendo of horrors that will threaten the entire town and everyone in it. An odd handful of townsfolk put their lives on the line to save the town, but the darkness may swallow them up before they have a chance. EDITORIAL REVIEWS "Reading Bad Juju is like being bitten by scorpions again and again and again, then asking for more because it felt so damned good." --T. M. Wright, author of Bone Soup "This is a brilliant book, and ranks right up there with James A Moore's Serenity Falls as my favourite town under siege by evil novels of all time." --Ginger Nuts of Horror "A high octane read ... scary as hell." --Walt Hicks, author of The Deathgrip Collection "Outstanding! Randy Chandler is horror's best kept secret! Buy it immediately, and discover the genre as it should be." --Kelly Tomblin, Horror-Web "I climbed into that sucker and couldn't get out. It was a real Venus Flytrap of a novel, absolutely compelling. I'd recommend Bad Juju without a single reservation [to] folks who dig old-time horror." --Steve Vernon, author of Devil Tree "A full-bore, take-no-prisoners, one-man mission to once and forever completely upend & recontextualize the hallowed traditions of the Southern Gothic." --t. Winter-Damon, co-author of Duet for the Devil

Duet for the Devil was published October 1, 2000, by Necro Publications.Before that, bits and pieces of the unruly opus were published in various small-press magazines and indie journals, often in somewhat different forms.By the time the novel made it between hard covers, its length had been considerably shortened. Some significant characters were lost altogether as their scenes got the ax.Subsequently, much of the "lost" segments from Duet for the Devil were published by Jasmine Sailing as The Forbidden Gospels of Man-Cruel Volumes I & II. These modest chapbooks also contained several scenes as they appeared before they were edited or reworked for the novel.Forbidden Gospels: The Devil's Cut presents Volumes I & II as they originally appeared in chapbook form, including the introductions by Brian Hodge and Don Webb. Also included is an all new addition to the Gospels: "The Devil's Cut-Up."Then comes the Prophet of the Perverse section--a tribute, of sorts, to the late t. Winter-Damon. It also includes Damon's long and rambling preface to Duet for the Devil, which until now has only appeared in the Advanced Uncorrected Proof and on the Necro Publications website. Plus some of Damon's best poetry and several poems he wrote with award-wining poet Bruce Boston. This section also includes moving remembrances by some of the people whose lives were touched Damon."Forbidden Gospels: The Devil's Cut is a literary remix of Duet For The Devil. If it were a movie, this would be the Director's Cut. But of course it's not a movie or a musical remix. It's damned book. The kind of book, according to one reviewer, that made a true book-lover throw the damned thing across the room. The dirty little secret is, that is exactly the reaction Damon and I wanted. The devil made us do it." --Randy ChandlerContributors and Acknowledgements: Jasmine Sailing, editor-publisher of Cyber-Psychos AOD Brian Hodge, contributing author Don Webb, contributing author Bruce Boston, poet and contributing author Peter H.
