Big
Cranky: Fall Into Darkness
by
James Pyne
Genre:
Dark Mythological Fantasy, Action
Forget
everything you think you know about myths and legends, James Pyne’s
Big Cranky connects them all in an epic web of deceitful betrayal,
love, and loyalty. A capricious tale of gods, showing human quirks
are not only wasted on the mortals. A tale of many deities treading
lightly around a superior as the world begins.
James
Pyne hails from Nova Scotia, Canada, and has been a scribe for the
Universe much of his life. He's a firm believer in being able to
write in every genre, to make his world building and characters
hopefuly come out genuine. No matter what he writes it will have some
form of darkness, nothing is pure light in any worlds James creates
and rumor has it, his surviving characters are plotting his demise.
When it comes to his past time, much of it is spent learning the
craft, but he does enjoy gardening and playfully tormenting those he
loves. When he's not writing, or working his day job, he's traveling.
The Andalusia region of Spain the last place that tolerated him.

on the tradition of myths throughout the ages.

The cover art seems appropriate for the book. Good job.
ReplyDeleteIt is, Paula. Jeffrey Kosh did a great job. Though sometimes people think it's straight up horror. The book has a little of that, along with most other genres, dark fantasy being the loudest of the genres.
DeleteOh, I absolutely love the cover. It definitely catches my attention and makes me want to check out the book further.
ReplyDeleteCool, Linda. I may be a slightly biased here, but I truly hope you check out the book more to the point you give it a chance. ;) Regardless, you all feel free to add me on Facebook. Always posting short stories of varying genres. :)
DeleteCreepy, yet beautiful! I love it!
