Happy pub day to the amazing and extremely prolific multi-genre author Kiersten White and her new middle-grade Star Wars novel HIDING FROM THE DARK. Kiersten was awesome enough to stop in and sign copies of this chilling, horror-themed novel today. Come in and grab your signed copy before they’re gone.

Watched the season two premiere of Dark Matter last night. I was wondering how they’d move past the events of Blake Crouch’s book but it works really well. Dig the show. Apple TV has done some of the best recent Sci-fi adaptations. I have high hopes for Neuromancer next year.

A great selection of signed titles up front for your READ HARD weekend. Author Steve Hawk (former editor of Surfer magazine and brother of famed skater Tony) and his surf/crime fiction debut NEARSHORE. The long-awaited print edition of Jonathan Maberry’s hit audio series BEWILDERNESS. The well-deserved hype for David Scott Hay’s biblical horror novel THE BUTCHER OF NAZARETH continues to build, while Adam Axler’s irreverent memoir AMERICAN TRIAGE: From 9/11 to Fahrenheit 451 remains a bestseller in non-fiction here at Artifact Books. Come in or order at artifactrarebboks.com before these signed editions are gone.
