5 Authors to Check Out in 2018

Henry Lin. Author of The 100-Pound Gangster. 4/5 on Goodreads. Henry Lin spent most of his precocious youth involved with the international criminal underworld.

Originally published: 20 September 2016.

Genre: Autobiography. This was a really interesting read. It’s fascinating to get an insight on how the author feels about various events which have taken place in his young life.
Maria Luisa Lang. Author of The Pharaoh’s Cat and The Eye of Nefertiti. 4/5 on Goodreads. 16 May 2015 – 184 pages. I absolutely loved both of these books. They made me laugh out loud and they made me cry. Read The Pharaoh’s Cat first.
Mike Russell. A British author best known for his books Nothing Is Strange, Strange Medicine and Strungballs. Nothing Is Strange, was released in December 2014. Strange Medicine was released in May 2016 and the novella Strungballs was released on Halloween the same year. Expect to see a new book from Mike at the beginning of 2018!
Lucille Turner. British author of The Sultan, The Vampyr and The Soothsayer. “A butterfly has landed on a patch of milk parsley. Wings held vertically so it’s not going anywhere – for the time being. Once he would have leant across and seized it. Now he’ll let it fly.” I really enjoyed Lucille’s writing and I’m looking forward to future books!
H.P. Lovecraft. American author of horror and weird fiction stories. Similar to Poe, Chambers and Machen, but unique. Best known for The Call of Cthulhu and The Case of Charles Dexter Ward. “The world is indeed comic, but the joke is on mankind.” He’s the only dead one on the list, but make sure you check out this author if he’s new to you!
