Thom Erb is a genre fiction writer exploring all shades of darkness and light and the varying definitions of heroism. Refusing to pigeonhole his writing, Thomas strives to craft tales that blur the lines of horror, fantasy, thriller, weird western, science fiction, etc, for both adult and young adult audiences. Until recently, he's focused his work mainly on short stories, but now is adventuring into the realm of long fiction. His first novella, Tones of Home is available now through Crowded Quarantine Press (UK) and here are what a few authors had to say about the work: "With TONES OF HOME Thomas A. Erb takes us home for some deeply disturbing holidays. Chilling and full of bizarre twists. Thumbs up." -Jonathan Maberry, New York Times best-selling author of FLESH & BONE and V-WARS "Thomas Erb's TONES OF HOME has to be the bloodiest, the most ruthless, and yet the most honest love story I've come across since Natural Born Killers. Erb put his hooks into me with this one and had me guessing right up to the last page. It's a nail-biter through and through, and I'm betting it's going to leave you as stunned as it left me. Oh-and Quentin Tarantino, if you're looking for your next movie, the search stops here." -Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Inheritance and Dead City. “If you’re into old school Rock and Roll and like your horror fiction dark and super nasty like I do, you’re going to LOVE Thomas A. Erb’s new book. TONES OF HOME is extreme horror at its best and it knocked me on my ass when I read it. Highly recommended!” -Gord Rollo, Author of THE JIGSAW MAN and THE CRUCIFIXION EXPERIMENTS. "TONES OF HOME is full-tilt, in-your-face horror ... If blood and mayhem are to your taste, you'll be satisfied to the max. ... And I will never be able to listen to the Beatles music the same way again." Rick Hautala- Author of Indian Summer and Glimpses. 'Tones of Home' starts at full-speed and never lets up. Unpredictable and astonishingly bloody! “Thomas A. Erb's story telling is a brutal, fast-paced read which hooks the reader in from the very start. Gallons of blood, plenty of violence, and the Fab Four… you'll not have read anything like this before!” David Moody, author of HATER and AUTUMN Series.
