We All Fall Before the Harvest is resurrected on Jan. 15th 2026!
I love this book so much, and am thrilled to see it back in print from Broken Brain Books. And check out that gorgeous cover! Oil painting by Samina Raza.
A cursed painting. Otherworldly beings. Criminals. Cults. And a large, foreboding city. Basically, this is what you would have gotten had Lovecraft written Sin City!
Earlier this year (May 1st, to be exact) my novella We All Fall Before the Harvest went out of print. The book was originally published with Timber Ghost Press and they were absolutely fantastic to work with. But, after 3 years, I felt my little cosmic horror/noir book had gone as far as it could there.
The plan, at the time, was to leave it on the shelf for a bit. I certainly was in no rush to find it a new home. One day, yes, but not today. However, a friend sent me a message saying that they had some connections and would love to put me in touch with said connections. I figured what the hell, and said sure.
Flash forward a bit and I’m signing a contract with Broken Brain Books. Which means (as the title of this post said) We All Fall Before the Harvest is back! Or, to be more precise, will be soon. When exactly? Dunno. But soon.
I should have more info in the coming weeks (including a brand-spanking-new cover) so stay tuned!
For those looking to jump on the bandwagon early, both We All Fall Before the Harvest and Infested are up for pre-order. Both books are currently only available in a digital format (but fear not paperbacks (and hardcover for Infested) will be available soon!).
We All Fall Before the Harvest
In the guts of a nameless city, career criminal Owen fights for his sanity and his life. After stealing a morbid piece of artwork at the behest of his boss, Owen discovers the original owners of the grotesque painting are part of a twisted cult known as The Family–and they’ll stop at nothing to get it back.
The longer Owen possesses the painting, the more it warps his mind and alters the very world around him. Between those that want him dead, his own dark past, and his crumbling grip on reality, the walls are closing in. Unstable but determined, Owen is the only thing standing between our world and the coming Harvest.
Infested
Something sinister is happening inside the New leaf Building.
Olivia wakes on her bedroom floor in a pool of vomit, head spinning. The power is off and her husband is missing. A vicious storm assaults the building, but it is nothing compared to the storm raging outside her apartment door. A parasite has begun invading–possessing–the residents. Transforming them into twisted, demented versions of their former selves with one thing on their mind. To kill.
Screams echo from the darkened hallways as Olivia, desperate to find her husband, ventures unknowingly into a world of violence and mayhem. Trapped within the New Leaf’s endless corridors, she must face her fears and discover the dark, ancient secret behind the insanity. She must face the Infested.
