Whitby Goth – Royal Hotel 29th Oct

by

C.M.Vassie was at the Royal Hotel in Whitby yesterday to meet readers and sign books! “So many kind words about Scravir from so many people,” Vassie said. “Thank you to you all! I hope you all enjoy The Whitby TRAP.”

“The sea was behaving itself yesterday. The rain fell and all seemed calm. But no one was fooled. We all know what lies beneath that polite exterior. Storms and lacklight are only ever hours away,” the author added.

We are hoping C.M.Vassie will agree to attend the Steampunk Weekend in February. Watch this space

NEW TITLE – the Whale Bone Archers

by

We are delighted that C.M.Vassie, author of our best-selling contemporary gothic thriller SCRAVIR, has written this collection of short, but decidedly tall, stories all set in one of their favourite places, the historic town of Whitby. 

How often have you visited a place and wanted to know a bit about its history without being force-fed a massive university thesis with 40 footnotes on every page? 

How often have you said to yourself it would be great to have a fictional guidebook that takes me round this town, shows me stuff I didn’t know, gives me a sense of what it’s all about while feeding me nonsense that makes me laugh or shiver? 

 

Well here it is! A magical mystery tour of Whitby. 

 

If Dracula is fiction what is his boot print doing on Tate Hill Pier? 

James Cook was an intrepid explorer but doesn’t that statue on the West Cliff show that his real passion was preparing Asian food for his crew?

Limited stock – Signed copies of SCRAVIR

by

As November slides into December sea mist haunts the lacklit streets. The new contemporary gothic phenomenon SCRAVIR flies into Whitby old town on silent wings. The first reprint is running low, a second reprint arrives in the new year. 

We still have limited stock of signed copies of SCRAVIR but you’ll have to hurry. The perfect gift for anyone who prefers dark tales  to the saccharine sweet sludge of crackers, pies, paper hats and tinsel!

Lastly, here is our favourite December review of Scravir. “Well the plan was to read this on holiday this week but silly me started it and finished it before we’d set off. Great read, loved that it was set in Whitby. Probably one of my favourite books I’ve read.” Rick Martin. 

Thanks Rick, really glad you love SCRAVIR !
