I'm certain by now you're all aware of how much Andrew Pyper's books meant to me. I wrote a memoir about it & for today & tomorrow the ebook is free. Come learn a little about me & a lot about why you should all read Andrew Pyper! mybook.to/thecolorofmelancholy

Looking to read some shorter stuff? My collection 'An Endless Darkness' has four novellas, two novelettes & the ebook is only 99c! mybook.to/anendlessdarkness

'When I Look...' has hit 100 GR Ratings! Thank you all for sticking with the novella & showing it some love! "The scenes of bloody violence are lush and cinematic." - Publishers Weekly mybook.to/whenilook

Book Review: Perhaps Mason Coile's most philosophic work yet, 'Exiles' explores themes of isolation, life after a loved one & belonging. This was a hard book for me to read & even harder to review. stevestredauthor.ca/2025/02/26/b...

Come for the fresh air. Stay for the experiments. mybook.to/mastodon

Looking for a biting look at what happens when a person in a position of power goes too far? Based on real events, my Father of Lies series blurs the line between fact & fiction. mybook.to/fatheroflies

If it wasn't for the juggernaut that was The Demonologist preceding The Damned's release, this book would easily be the one we all suggest as Andrew Pyper's magnum opus. 1/2

The weather has warmed, I was approved for a review copy of Mason Coile's 'Exiles' and it's FRIDAY! So, I figured I'd pull out this beauty of a photo & share it again! I hope everyone finds something that makes them smile today!

This little novella started it all for me and the horror community and writing!!! Steve was one of the first author to answer back! Good man and amazing author! Read The Window in the Ground!!! 👇👀👇👀👇🪟

Grabbed some @stevestred.bsky.social for the in-flight entertainment today.

This little novella is turning five this year & over the last few months it's been finding a bunch of new readers! If you're looking for an unsettling, folklore-portal, coming-of-age read - come see why you should read the rules twice! mybook.to/windowground

I'm living in the upside down these days where this kid from Burton has a Lit Agent! My mind is blown! Kodie is so enthusiastic about everything that I've got on the go & it has been so amazing working with her already! I'll share details when I can!

IT'S GETTING CLOSER (THIS IS A THREAT) I hope I'll see folks at the Merril Collection in Toronto on March 1, 2 pm! We are partnering with @bakkaphoenix.bsky.social to launch ONE MESSAGE REMAINS, my war-magic-resistance-whatever book with @psychopomp.com ! 😍 www.psychopomp.com/launch

Deep with the Rocky Mountains, near Ogre Peak, is a section of land cordoned off by the government. Tyler is about to discover why. mybook.to/mastodon

Amanda & I spent some time today organizing & rearranging my Pyper Shelves & I think they look great! Got some room saved for more editions of William as well as the upcoming Exiles!

Episode Six of Steve & Auryn Discuss! is here! And this one's all about Chupacabra! We chat about the origins & lore of the cryptid, as well as what we think it is! youtu.be/Rq71WCu6iaE?

Today here, is Family Day! A holiday Monday for people to spend time with their loved ones. So, why not read a book where the family learns crazy secrets & a mystery is unraveled! One of my favorite Andrew Pyper books - 'The Homecoming' is absolutely gripping!

Book Review: 'Annihilation' by Jeff VanderMeer throws us into an odder than odd place & makes us second guess every detail given to us. All the while, we're left uncomfortable & unnerved. This was fantastic. stevestredauthor.ca/2025/02/14/b...

'A deliciously malevolent slice of Cosmic horror. Sinister & unrelenting, it breathlessly propels you into the unknown.' - Evan Dickson, screenwriter, V/H/S/85 & Totem. mybook.to/whenilook

Coming September 16th, 2025... Mason Coile, the author behind the hit novel 'William,' transports you to Mars. Pre-order now! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/761628...

It's now 🇨🇦 law that if you see an Andrew Pyper book in any bookstore - new or used - you have to buy it. I followed that law while we were out today & another glorious copy of The Only Child joins the Pyper Shelves.

Book Review: Andrew Michael Hurley's 'Starve Acre' was a perfectly - and frustratingly - executed grief/folklore horror novel. Beyond unnerving, there are scenes within this that disturbed me like no others before. stevestredauthor.ca/2025/02/11/b...

Always happy to get visits by some absolute gems!! 🖤👻📚 @jrmcconvey.bsky.social @stevestred.bsky.social
