Leisure builds solid horror lineup for 2006
Following a lackluster couple of months, Leisure’s two-a-month horror paperback line looks far more promising in the coming new year, with novels about zombies, poltergeists and, yes, even giant worms.
January brings Tim Lebbon’s corpse-laden BERSERK and Ray Garton’s creepy-kid tale THE LOVELIEST DEAD, while in February, a writer faces supernatural terrors in Mark Morris’ THE IMMACULATE and J.P. Gonzalez’s extreme horror outing SURVIVOR – about a snuff film – is unleashed to the general public. March offers AFTER MIDNIGHT, another Richard Laymon novel, and DEATHBRINGER, Bryan Smith’s zombie-filled follow-up to HOUSE OF BLOOD.
Later in the summer, giant worms invade in Brian Keene’s THE CONQUEROR WORMS and Jack Ketchum’s infamous cannibal tale OFF SEASON finally gets back in print, and uncensored at that! If you’ve read his equally notorious THE GIRL NEXT DOOR, you know exactly the kind of shocks to expect.
You can preview six of the titles’ covers after the jump.
