Book One Blood Rites rose to #2 on the Fictionwise.com Dark Fantasy bestseller list. In Book Two, the young necromancer, Isranon, now a blood-slave, lies helpless, at the mercy of Anksha, a demon-eater who is the Beast of legend. But even her feasting on his lifeblood, magical powers and life force is not the worst threat to Isranon, for not far away the Vampire Lord, Brandrahoon, master of demons, is creating a monster, a creature with a gift of magic powerful enough to make him a king or a god. Unexpectedly, Anksha finds herself falling in love with Isranon--can the slave become the master? When Lord Brandrahoon's creation frees an even greater evil, Isranon escapes in the destruction that follows. The world's only hope is now the despised Isranon, apostate Dark Brother of the Light. Eternally bound to Anksha, and threatened by his own people with blades and death spells, how can Isranon prevent the coming holocaust sweeping the planet free of life? How can he even hope to survive long enough to recover his ancestor's staff, long promised to him in prophecy? "[Janrae Frank] is "no less accomplished than C. J.

'Each age calls forth its own prophet, a poetic oracle who sees past the heavy drapery we call 'the world' to the prime reality that lies beyond. You should feel both ecstatic and terrified that our age has elicited M. J. Hewitt as its prose-lapidarian. Ecstatic, for Hewitt himself truly resonates with the daemonic muse, a voice that echoes from the depths of Tartarus and beckons forth, by turn, angels, devils, monsters, and gods. And terrified, for Hewitt sings not of arm-in-arm brotherhood and cozy lovingkindness, but rather of Yeats's 'blood-dimmed tide,' an aeon drenched in gore-bespattered corpses and unrelenting pain for the pitiable humans left alive.'BLOODLAND TALES shimmers with the decadent imagery that Clark Ashton Smith conjured so easily, and in these opalescent prose-poems Hewitt both acknowledges his debt to 'Klarkash-Ton' and progresses even further into a darkness-drenched universe without redemption, mercy, or salvation. There is no way to reach out to those we care for; only broad-axe slashes that leave gaping wounds. There is no bright afterlife with grace and holiness; only transmogrification through pain and torture as humans become parasitic spirits who lure others into torment. Love is destined to end in disillusionment and despair, and we learn our world itself is the black-tinged dream of distant alien beings our brains cannot even comprehend, beings who survive only through our suffering.'You will find no words of comfort in this scarlet landscape. But for those who are able to realize the Baudelairean beauty that lies in decay, the Sadeian pleasure of witnessing another's hopeless prayer for mercy, the Lovecraftian awe of glancing into unilluminated gulfs in which madness dwells, Hewitt fills our descent into chaos with exquisite scenes, mixed in equal parts, of glamour and gore.'I've joined the Cult of Hewitt. It's time you signed your soul away and joined as well.' more...

The Body Shop consists of a novella and twelve short stories. The title piece is the most engaging and original story in the whole collection. Its 40,000 odd words pack in a fair amount of black satirical horror. Set in a post apocalyptic future where life is very cheap and rapidly cannibalised, we discover the human body to be very much in need of a Dr. Frankenstein figure (Edgerton) to put us back together. Of course there's a high monetary cost, and disregard of gender and ethics. For our hideous human vanity will do anything to procure a functional body. My favourite moments are when the heads (only), of the injured rich, argue about their needs. They've been waiting for a body for years. Even become a little community, that gets to sing carols with Edgerton once a year! more...
