The New Madrid Horror (Steel Tale Series)

Based on the Mythos of H.P. Lovecraft and true historical events, The New Madrid Horror details the dastardly deeds which triggered a massive earthquake that devastated the state of Missouri along the Mississippi River. This is a story of family-gone-wrong, a tale of piracy, murder, and cannibalism. Worst of all, it reveals the cosmic horror derived from Numerology. What is the True Number of that great river? What happens when that number, that name, is called out? This tale was originally published in Folded Steel: More Tales of the Weird and Woeful. Cover Illustration by Brett Nuefeld.

About the Author

Aaron Hollingsworth is the author of the Four Winds-One Storm saga, the Steel Tales series, a few odd novellas, and numerous tabletop RPG supplements. He is a sloppy-yet-enthusiastic martial artist, a rhythmically-challenged songwriter, and a spewer of odd facts at social gatherings. His stories usually involve sword fights, unorthodox usage of magic, fast-moving plots, archaic adjectives, romance-without-commitment, poetic justice, and/or ironic revenge. His mundane life involves keeping his artist wife Stephanie Hollingsworth inspired and well-supplied, preventing their sons Jude the Dude and Leonidas from summoning eldritch horrors, and making sure that a certain high school in the Kansas City area is a clean environment for teachers and students. He dares readers to explore his website at aaronhollingsworth.com and to like his Facebook page at facebook.com/AaronHollingsworthWriter.
