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
