Like the dead themselves, I did little last weekend. I shambled; read; shambled; ate; shambled; growled – and devoured my copy of Autumn. For just a short space of two days, the world that is Autumn ruled mine, the addiction that is David Moody flowing through my veins.

Hi All
In case you wondered where I’ve been, I have been in hotel NHS partaking of their hospitality for a wee while followed by Costa Del Sofa. It’s been a bit of a tough week, but some exciting news to share! I met – The Doctor. I’m telling you. The sticky up hair, the jittery manner, the childlike ways, the dodgy outfit & the skinny boddy. The Consultant I met could’ve been no more than ten years old and was a dead ringer for Dr – well, you know Who.

An impressive horror detective noir, in the tradition of Mike Carey’s Felix Castor & Charlie Huston’s Joe Pitt novels, Pretty Little Dead Things is the shocking story of Thomas Usher – an usher for the dead.
Following the death of his wife and daughter in a car crash, Usher slowly recovers from his physical and emotional scars as he battles with his grief and the surfacing of a new talent. Like a mature drunk and tortured Haley Joel Osment, Thomas Usher, psychic sleuth can see dead people. Dealing with his emerging talent as well as his grief takes its toll and Usher tries to turn away from the dead but the dead are persistent. And he can only ignore them so much.
