Death Minus Zero - Chapters 11 To 20

Filed under: novels — Tags: , , , , — piratejohnbaker @ 11:23 am

This is a scream of a novel in both sences of the word. Norman, the psychopath is truly creepy, cruel and nasty, everything you would expect. But what Baker pulls off here is to get us to recognize traces of ourselves in him.

Plus, it’s very funny.

Death Minus Zero - Chapters 1 To 10

Filed under: novels — Tags: , , , , — piratejohnbaker @ 12:52 pm

OK, the whole of Poet in the Gutter is now on the site; and I’ve already uploaded the first 10 chapters of Death Minus Zero.

If you don’t know already (and I suspect you do, or you wouldn’t be here), Death
Minus Zero
is the sequel to Poet in the Gutter and the second novel in the Sam
Turner series.

It’s about a psychopath looking for Snow White and finding Sam Turner keeps getting in
his way.

Enjoy. The rest will follow soon.

It’s all up there now. Though, there were times I thought I’d never get it done. I hope you enjoy it.

Next up is Death Minus Zero, the second novel in the Sam Turner series, which will begin coming soon, in installments. You lucky people.

The last chapter. Tying Everything up. Sam takes Celia on the dance floor, as promised. Geordie manages to make the last line one of the most memorable in any book you ever read.

Poet in the Gutter - Chapter 60

“Geordie was on a stretcher being loaded into an ambulance, there were tubes coming out of him, and the ambulance driver was holding some kind of bottle above the kid’s head.”

Things seem to be coming to a head, here. And there’s another killing into the bargain.

Sam and Gus start work on breaking through the cellar wall. Strange smell of rotten meat in there.
