Killercon
by William Ollie
“You’d be crazy not to go,” is what Johnny Z told his pal Bryan, the writer whose third book has just hit the market, and that’s what Bryan told his neighbor, Larry, who’s dying to see what goes on at a horror convention.
Red33 is going to be there.
If he has his way, Larry’s going to get his dying wish; Bryan, too.
And anybody else who gets in Red’s way.
Author blurbs:
"Killercon puts a fresh, ingenious twist on the crazed killer theme—and
does so with a clear love and appreciation for the genre that spawned it.
Full of black humor and wonderful thrills, this is a fun read for any horror
enthusiast."
--Bram Stoker Award-winner Brian Keene, author of The Rising, City Of The Dead, and The Conqueror Worms--
"William Ollie's Killercon is one of those rare novels that hits awfully close to home for readers and writers of horror alike. Starting with an all-too common staple of today's world -- the Internet flame war -- and building from there, Ollie's novel beautifully (and frighteningly) displays what happens when one of these childish Internet confrontations is allowed to get out of hand. Part morality fable, part cautionary tale, and large part black comedy, Killercon delivers everything its central concept promises, and then some! One of the most outright entertaining books I've read in a long time."
--Bram Stoker Award-winner Gary A. Braunbeck, author of Keepers and Prodigal Blues
