The Waiting Gets Its First Review
Hola from the land of ice and snow. I’ve been shoveling and chopping ice daily for a month now. Still not fed up with winter, even though we’re just a few inches shy of the all time record of 70 inches for a season. I think my parents adopted me from an eskimo family.
The good thing about being trapped in the house is that I have plenty of time to get things done, writing-wise. I’m going over the final page proofs for THE MONTAUK MONSTER, just handed in the sequel to SINISTER ENTITY and I’m on day 3 of working on my next thriller for Pinnacle. I’m hoping this one will induce palpitations and night sweats.
Amidst all this, I was thrilled to see the very first review for my upcoming novella, THE WAITING, over at Horror Novel Reviews. I think I have to put the reviewer, Tim Meyer, in the will or something. The book is a little over a month away, so this was a nice early surprise present.
Available April 1st as a Samhain Horror ebook.
Here are the tasty bits of the review…
The Waiting is one of Hunter’s best, most personal works to date.
…has all the makings for a classic ghost story.
Hunter’s style implants moving images in your brain that captures your mind, making his words nearly impossible to put down.
This novella has relatable characters, an engaging plot, and a creepy little boy I hope stays inside Hunter’s novella and the hell away from my house. Go read it!

And for those intrigued, here’s a picture of the actual where the phantom boy in The Waiting has been seen on and off for the past 20 years.
OK, time to buy Demi Lovato tickets for my daughter. Life can’t all be ghosts and monsters.

Can’t wait to meet this little boy. In your book, of course.
That was an eloquent and attention grabbing review. Tim knows how to write em!
He sure does. I may adopt him. 🙂
I just knew that Demi Lovato was the driving force behind your work! lol Congrats to you 🙂
Thanks. Yeah, me and Demi go way back. The things I do for love.
lmao 🙂
Once and for all, Hunter, which one has my name in it? (No, you still haven’t told me.) I have to buy a new book and I need to know which one 😀
The name of the book with you in it is tentatively titled Island of the Forbidden. It comes out next year. Trust me, I’ll be sending you a copy when it’s out.
