The Dark Game

English

By (author): Jonathan Janz

In his latest pulp horror gem, Janz channels early Stephen King to twist the story of a secluded writers retreat into something unique and thought-provoking. - Booklist
Ten writers are selected for a summer-long writing retreat with the most celebrated and reclusive author in the world. Their host is the legendary Roderick Wells. Handsome, enigmatic, and fiendishly talented, Wells promises to teach his pupils about writing, about magic, about the untapped potential that each of them possesses. Most of all, he plans to teach them about the darkness in their hearts. 
The writers think they are signing up for a chance at riches and literary prestige. But they are really entering the twisted imagination of a deranged genius, a lethal contest pitting them against one another in a struggle for their sanity and their lives. They have entered into Roderick Wellss most brilliant and horrible creation. 
The Dark Game.     FLAME TREE PRESS is the new fiction imprint of Flame Tree Publishing. Launched in 2018 the list brings together brilliant new authors and the more established; the award winners, and exciting, original voices. See more

About Jonathan Janz

Jonathan Janz grew up between a dark forest and a graveyard which explains everything. Brian Keene named his debut novel The Sorrows the best horror novel of 2012. The Library Journal deemed his follow-up House of Skin reminiscent of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House and Peter Straub's Ghost Story Since then Jonathan's work has been lauded by writers like Jack Ketchum Edward Lee Tim Waggoner Bryan Smith and Ronald Kelly. Novels like The Nightmare Girl Wolf Land Savage Species and Dust Devils prompted Thunderstorm Books to sign Jonathan to an eleven-book deal and to give him his own imprint Jonathan Janz's Shadow Side. His novel Children of the Dark received a starred review in Booklist and was chosen by their board as one of the Top Ten Horror Books of the Year (August 2015-September 2016). Children of the Dark will soon be translated into German and has been championed by the Library Journal the School Library Journal and Cemetery Dance. In early 2017 his novel Exorcist Falls was released to critical acclaim. Jonathan's primary interests are his wonderful wife and his three amazing children and though he realizes that every author's wife and children are wonderful and amazing in this case the cliché happens to be true.
