Most people didn't understand how strongly mothers felt toward their children from the moment they were born. That this screaming thing in your arms was your entire reason for being. That you would do anything to make it happy. That you would fight, kill, die. - Chapter 11 This book is chilling, ...

Author Craig DiLouie describes the ramifications of that scenario in this book, SUFFER THE CHILDREN. When thinking...

People thought life was a miracle, but it wasn't. Life was everywhere. The miracle was knowing you were alive. Sentience. Mind. That was the rare, precious gift. What an absolutely creepy, crazy, and fantastic read. I don't think I have ever used the highlight feature on my Kindle as much I have wh...

I received a free copy from Permuted Press via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you! All of a sudden, a few weeks before Christmas, all children die. Every single one of them. Even foetuses still in their mother's womb. Herod's Event, named after the Biblical King. Is it the end o...
