Polters Longlisted for Cygnus Prize!

Polters, released in March, is a novel about life on the other side of the river that separates the living from the dead. And it has landed on the bottom rung of a tall ladder: the Cygnus Prize Longlist: https://www.chantireviews.com/contests/

The Cygnus Prize recognizes outstanding works in the genre of Science Fiction, Steampunk, Alternative History, and Speculative Fiction. The Longlist announcement means Polters made the first cut. Next goal: the Short List!

Polters falls mostly into the Speculative Fiction category. What is a Polter? It’s a kind of ghost, much like us, but more dead. Oddly, Polters don’t remember being alive so they don’t agree that they’re dead. That’s just a value judgment, they insist.

Polters is also a heartbreaking story of love and loss. Suppose you found your loved one in the land of the dead. Then what?

“…captivating from the very first page.” –Reviewer, Readers Favorite.com.

“An inventive mystery set in the land between the living and the dead. The writing is clean with a consistent voice …The characters are developed with clear, individual motivations and believable relationships.” –Reviewer, Writers Digest BookLife Prize.

You can get Polters now on Amazon, Apple Books, and elsewhere:
