Fearscape #2

2018

Heroic plagiarist Henry Henry faces his first trial in the Fearscape! Within The Weeping Castle, home to The Children of Prometheus, Henry Henry encounters wondrous and fanciful creatures—including The First Fear. With courage and calm, he endures the heart of darkness, refusing the easy temptation of light. No Legs can outrun—no Mind can outwit—no Heart can outlove our hero.

Fearscape #4

2019

After the tragic events of the third issue, the villainous Henry Henry finds himself—No! The advertising copy provided here by the publisher will not do! The events of our third chapter (please refrain from calling them issues) are hardly tragic. Our brave hero bested two villains, yet his reward is to be libeled against in marketing copy? -HH

Fearscape #5

2019

In the final issue of Fearscape, Henry Henry shows his true colours as he—I promised myself I would not interject again, but alas I "True colours"?! Really?! I appreciate it is only marketing copy, but must the closing chapter of my opus be marred with such overwrought cliche? At least pretend to care. -HH

Back cover blurbs are a waste of ink. While they might reveal story, plot, and characters; rarely do they share the most important aspect of a book – how it makes you feel. Imagine a blurb that only communicated tone_. Wouldn’t that be a huge risk? To hope that the reader, curious at the lack of traditional dust-jack exposition, would crack open the book in search of answers? Of course, I doubt you are one to fall for such an obvious ploy, dear reader. But then again, I doubt you, much like me, are one for reading or writing blurbs. \-HH_ Collects: Fearscape 1-5
