Things went wrong for Alvin and April Blue. In a hospital at night, April sits next to Alvin, bandages covering his burned skin, listening to his heartbeat on a monitor, and wonders how they ended up here. But she can never imagine the world of insanity, drugs, and crime that Alvin has fallen into. A place where fetuses are used to create simulacra, radiation victims prowl the streets looking for sacrifice, houses are arbitrarily detonated, and the police force is more like a marauding gang of thugs. A place where it’s always dark and morning is dead…
### From the Inside Flap
Rarely are readers of horror given the opportunity to laugh while wanting to throw up in their mouths a little bit . . . It's like peanut butter and chocolate, if peanut butter and chocolate were laced with rust, vomit, blood and oozing green radiation byproducts. - **Jessica Brown** for Horrornews.net
For the pierced, brooding goth and/or Chuck Palahniuk fan ... Is it all just a really bad acid trip? Actually, it's something much, much worse. Pick up this book if you enjoy blood-curdling, mind-screwing chills and thrills. - *Tucson Weekly*
An emotionally devastating descent into bizarre horror. If Philip K. Dick wrote horror, *Morning is Dead* might be what he'd have written. It's the book to read when you want to feel paranoid about your marriage, your work, your neighbors, your town, and your life in general. Don't worry, though. You'll enjoy every second of it. Gripping and creepy as hell. - **Jordan Krall**, author of *Squid Pulp Blues* and *Fistful of Feet*
*Morning is Dead* is event horizon dark. You won't find a positive thought in the entire story. - **Nathaniel Lambert**, co-author of *Sideshow PI: The Devil's Garden* and *It's OK To Be a Zombie*
Buy it now. Read it. If you want a book that is scary, creepy, disturbing, surreal, and compelling, then you will enjoy *Morning is Dead*. - **Lance Carbuncle**, author of *Grundish and Askew* and *Smashed, Squashed, Splattered, Chewed, Chunked and Spewed*
Alarmingly pertinent ... Nobody is safe and nothing is sacred. An amazing book. - **Matthew Revert**, author of *A Million Versions of Right*
Like a true nightmare, this night-time world has danger at every corner. - **Nick Cato**, author of *Don of the Dead*
The despair and heartache are palpable, the strangeness nigh impenetrable and the horror intense. - **Garrett Cook**, author of *Archelon Ranch*
