Night Shift

A.P. Atkinson - Seth Godwynn

Night Shift is a true horror novel, blending both physical and psychological horror with a Detective-Noir vibe. There are some moments of comedy and a whiff of science-fiction in there too but, at its core, this is a story designed to be disturbing. Jack and Seth have weaved a novel that pushes the boundaries of horror and tried to create something uniquely their own that will still be accessible to any fan of the genre. Night Shift is a grim, realistic story that will stay with you long after you close it down.

"“People always laugh at the horror movies, don’t they? They always say, 'He should have run out of there', or 'She shouldn’t be going there alone'. But that’s really what you do—you can’t help it! Something takes over, something deep inside. You tell yourself you’re just being silly and there’s nothing to be afraid of. This is real life—there are no monsters here.""

Quote from 'Night Shift.' We'd never done a horror before and felt like taking the cliches and turning them on their heads.

"Suddenly a bright white light exploded behind his eyes, blotting out the world around him. He opened his mouth to scream, but if any sound came out, it was lost to his ears. He felt like he was being sucked into pain, as if the idea of being hurt was a gaping hole that was swallowing him up. The light grew brighter, from an all–encompassing glow to a brilliance that burnt the very fabric of his mind."

Quote from 'Night Shift.' Not many laughs in this one...

"You told me months ago. We had a bottle of that red wine you like, the one I can’t pronounce, and we talked about our previous relationships. You explained why you have issues with trust and I explained that I have trouble getting into relationships because I’m a bit fat, and a little bit ugly.”"

Quote from 'Night Shift.' We wanted to try being like Stephen King, only while writing the book ourselves, and not being an utterly insane deivant who lost his mind decades ago. Let us know how we did.
