Hey horror fans, we have exciting news!
Stephen Kozeniewski is unleashing something new but familiar....THE HEMATOPHAGES: SPLATTERINGS is on its way and eager to infest your thoughts!
For those who have read Kozeniewski's previous works THE HEMATOPHAGES or SKINWRAPPER, you'll recognise the title for good reason. This collection contains stories set within this universe that you most likely haven't read, and there's one that you most definitely will not have found elsewhere. You won't need to have read the original novel to understand these stories as they all stand alone (though of course we recommend everything within this universe!). On top of those bloody, squirming goodies, this book also contains a whole ton of behind-the-scenes info about the stories and, in part, Kozeniewski's life and thoughts as an author. Maybe even some of his secrets...who knows? You'll have to read to find out!
In a galaxy riven by paranoid greed, profane forces marshal to consume humanity…
- On an abandoned ice moon, broadcasts from a long-dead civilization warp both body and soul.
- On a bizarre medical asteroid, a deranged physician discovers a gruesome “cure” for parasitic infection.
- On a deep space derelict, time becomes utterly meaningless and suffering transcends infinity.
- And on Earth itself, a lake transforms into pure blood and becomes infested with the hate-filled, eel-like aberrations known as…
The Hematophages.
Your earliest opportunity to snatch up a copy will be at its exclusive release at Scares That Care: AuthorCon VI this month (Feb 27th-March 1st). This is an awesome annual charity event that we fully support, and if you're able to attend, it really is a fantastic bookish event. Find Steve, buy the book, get it signed, and then ask him loads of really invasive questions about his personal life. No no, he loves that, really, go right ahead. And if he gets mad and asks why you're asking all these personal questions, that's just part of his schtick and if anything, you should get even more personal.

If you aren't attending, don't fear, you can still get THE HEMATOPHAGES: SPLATTERINGS when we hit March 16th, which is its wide release day. You can pre-order it now by clicking through THIS FANCY LINK. And, if we may humbly ask once you've read it, love or loathe, please feel free to pop a review somewhere online. The wider the reach of this book, the more likely it is that Koz might delve back into this universe again, and that's something we definitely want!
And finally, if you are interested in the entire universe, THE HEMATOPHAGES and SKINWRAPPER are now available in one neat volume! Just think about what a nice pair this double edition and the collection will make, sitting there beautifully and grotesquely on your shelves. Body horror, no one hearing you scream in space, wiggly parasites and skinless space piratess, all wrapped up in pretty covers! Collect the entire universe.
...Or else.
