Pre-order MARQUEE by John Paul Allen
Insidious Publications is now taking advance orders for Marquee, a novella by Gifted Trust author John Paul Allen, illustrated by Tom Moran (The Problem with Mickey). The softcover edition is expected to ship in October. I have a pdf of this book on my hard drive, and while I have yet to read any of it, I did study Moran's artwork and the book's layout and I can tell you this is a truly beautiful package. Here are the details:

Scott Dryden, manager of the Quinley Inn, believed his story began with the death of Duffy Birdsong, but quickly learned that beginnings and endings are not always as they seem. Reoccurring dreams and visits from the dead drive him headlong into a new reality beyond his own existence, one in which tragedy and hope are intertwined and the purpose of his soul is understood. In Marquee, John Paul Allen leads us into a world where death is merely a brief interruption.

Marquee is book One in Insidious Publications' handmade Chapbook Series; perfect bound, and limited to 125 signed and numbered copies. Also available as a Lettered edition limited to 26 copies; entirely handcrafted, bound in genuine leather with striking full color interior illustrations in a new and exciting format you have likely never seen in a limited edition, and a bonus story entitled Runs Like Rabbit. Art by Tom Moran.
