Necro Files: Two Decades of Extreme Horror - An Awesome Scary Gory Horror Anthology

Necro Files: Two Decades of Extreme Horror is (easy to guess) a new horror anthology from October, 2001. It contains short stories from twenty different authors: Their most peculiar works over a period of two decades.



Amongst the authors are the writer of the blockbuster fantasy series, A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin; horror genius Bentley Little; Edward Lee, a gifted modern Lovecraft fanatic; J. F. Gonzalez; and Graham Masterton.
The book has the subtitle "of Extreme Horror" for a reason, each story is blood-soaked, violent, and sick. Just remember Wrath James White's earlier works or Edward Lee's Lovecraftian nightmares. Some of the stories were banned (wow).

Brian Keene is an awesome American horror fiction writer (known for novels like Urban Gothic which is my favourite book written by him). His 2011 horror story is Take the Long Way Home.

Nate Southard - Just Like Hell, An Awesome Scary Gory Horror Thriller Novel

Nate Southard is an American horror writer, his newest slasher novel, Just Like Hell, is a great horror story. Graphic violence and gore included.



Let me tell you I love the subject of Just Like Hell: gay rights. True that they are expressed in a way a horror author's mind works.
Dillion is a well-loved, successful boy at high school, a star of the football team - however, it turns out that he has a male lover, Randy. Their homophobic team-mates abduct both Dillion and his lover, and take them to a remote house in the woods, humiliate them, torture them - then murder one of them. The survivor avenges himself - and his lover - on their tormentors, one by one...

Edward Lee - Carnal Surgery, An Awesome Scary Horror Short Story Collection

Edward Lee, an American horror writer, is well-admired amongst horror fans for several reasons: His love for H. P. Lovecraft (we do share this love, right?), his gory graphic violence descriptions, his daring and painful sexual fantasies... His short story collection, Carnal Surgery, is a good example for that.




Carnal Surgery is brimmed with gore, sexual slaves, sadism, and nightmares of a twisted mind: That of Edward Lee. In the antology there are eleven short fictions, amongst others Death, She Said, Gut-Shot, and Please Let Me Out. All of the stories gives readers the creeps - the collection is a must-read to horror fans and Lee fans alike.

Michael Crichton - Jurassic Park, A Great Fantasy Science Fiction Classic

Michael Crichton is an American best-selling author and screenwriter. His fantasy sci-fi book Jurassic Park (just like the second part, The Lost World) was a great blockbuster back in the 1990's, both the novel and the movie adaptation. I have read that book as a child, and how I loved it!



Jurassic Park is a fast-paced action thriller fantasy, full of tension and some gore.
A scientist invents a new technique to reproduce clone dinosaurs in a desolate island; planning a theme park of them, named Jurassic Park. Some other scientists visit the place, and they are amazed and frightened to see that even Velociraptors and T-Rexes are there in his bizarre collection. Of course something goes awry and carnivore dinosaurs cause havoc on the island. The visitors needs to flee, but it is dubious whether they will survive...
