Synopsis

The Burning Rider: a childish legend or a merciless supernatural executioner?

For over three centuries, no one has entered the village of Lydchurch at night and survived. There have been over six hundred reports of the apparition, and untold numbers of deaths and disappearances.

Modern-day investors don’t want to believe the old legend. They want to quickly prove that the apparition doesn't exist and start developing the land...

When a small team investigates the abandoned village at night, their task begins with grisly discoveries and evolves into nightmarish horror. Soon the survivors are trying desperately to escape the molten wrath of the Burning Rider...

‘The Burning Rider’ is the eighth in the series of Short Horror Tales - quick reads written to captivate the reader with thrills, chills and unexpected twists.

Reviews from this author’s horror releases:

“...thoroughly spooky, enticing and well written from start to finish.”
“...great... I could feel the fear...”
“…shows true mastery of the short horror story… a wildly imaginative antagonist unlike anything I’ve read before... a quick, captivating read full of horror and thrills. The tense action and suspense of Glancing Blow make it incredibly hard to put down…”
(Glancing Blow – Short Horror Tales #1)
“…When the blood starts to splatter, Nigel’s day gets really rough. Thompson has devised a brilliantly brutal creature to sic on his leading man. Creative and twisted, the monster is a total terror… Hooker is an absolutely insane, blood-pumping ride… With a wicked cool monster and a page-turning climax, this is one Creature Feature you won’t want to miss out on…”
(Hooker – Short Horror Tales #2)
“Great short story...”
(Ignition Source – Short Horror Tales #4)
“...well-written, descriptive and enthralling page-turner, that’s not for the faint-hearted... The twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat...”
(God Of War)
“...extremely well written and very dark. The author did a great job of creating a palpable sense of doom that surrounds the main character from the beginning, and then creating more tension and horror as the story went on...”
(Into The Hole)

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Ian Thompson is a British writer who has always loved good tales - whether in the form of novels and short stories, TV shows, movies, comics or video games. Being drawn into the realms of someone's imagination has always appealed to him and has driven him to create realms of his own. He writes fast-paced adventures with strong and unusual characters, vibrant worlds, gritty action and unexpected twists. in February 2015, his debut novel PARADISE EXHUMED was released. The murderous whodunit thriller, set in modern-day Britain, sees a pair of investigative reporters hunting a brutal and seemingly unstoppable killer. ERA OF DARKNESS - VOLUMES I & II form his war-torn fantasy saga, in which a divided world faces extinction at the hands of demonic invaders. Amid mammoth battles and awful carnage, an array of diverse characters attempt to defeat their overwhelming enemies. A spin-off series of Era Of Darkness novellas began with SURVIVAL I: SLAUGHTER AT GHASTAR. GOD OF WAR is a dark, gory horror thriller – told partly in Ancient Britain during the Roman Occupation and partly during modern-day. A monstrosity created two thousand years ago is re-discovered deep underground today by a group of trapped cavers, with terrifying consequences. Ian’s Short Horror Tales Series was developed to offer readers quick reads that are rich in thrills, chills and nightmarish twists. GLANCING BLOW, HOOKER, CHAINED, IGNITION SOURCE, HOUSE OF MY DREAMS and BUG HUNT were the first six in over a dozen tales so far. In April 2017, Ian released the fantasy novel HECTOR REBORN – VOLUME I: DEATH & LIFE. This featured the hero Hector, slain in the Trojan War, who finds himself reborn on a strange and fantastic world. Far from being an idyllic afterlife, Hector’s new home proves to be a land of hideous terror, treachery and lethal adventure. The saga concluded in the second volume, RETRIBUTION. His next project was an apocalyptic zombie story with a unique twist. In THE EARTH BLEEDS saga, the world literally begins to bleed a mysterious substance onto its surface – killing billions and turning the dead into ravenous, mutated monsters. The short tale ZOMBIE HORDE was the first in the ongoing series. Ian is currently writing his second murder-mystery thriller THE MURDER WEAPON ON THE HILL, whilst continuing to release further Short Tales.
