Synopsis

Bigger. Bolder. More Personal.

Picking up where My Life In Horror Volume I left off, this book collects the final five years of essays in Kit Power's celebrated My Life In Horror blog series, each one revisited and revised for this edition. For Volume II. The subject matter is even more eclectic than Volume I, with totemic horror works sitting alongside other pop culture artifacts and deeply personal experiences as Kit digs deeper, really trying to get under the skin of the art that moved him as a child and young man... and to answer that seemingly eternal question, Why Horror?

This volume two collection includes essays on The Nightmare On Elm Street franchise, Candyman, George Ramero's Martin, Bodycount's debut album, Natural Born Killers, Superman III, The Columbine massacre, and many, many more. As with Volume I, each essay has been revisited and revised, creating a second autobiography via the medium of pop culture.

PRAISE FOR VOLUME I:

"If you want to mainline someone's utter love and immersion in books, movies and music, with beautifully honest reflections on life, the world, and everything, look no further." Stephen Volk, Screenwriter and Author

"My Life In Horror is a loving, enthusiastic, insightful and compulsive read for any fan of the genre. I fully recommend it." - Brian Keene, Horror Grandmaster

"Warning: This book is almost impossible to put down." - Tracy Fahey, Author: The Unheimlich Manoeuvre

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Kit Power lives in Milton Keynes and writes horror and dark crime fiction, with occasional forays into dystopian science fiction. His fiction work includes a novel, 'GodBomb!', and a novella collection 'Breaking Point', two short story collections ('A Warning About Your Future Enslavement That You Will Dismiss As A Collection Of Short Fiction And Essays By Kit Power' and 'Voices') and novellas 'The Finite' and 'A Song For The End'. His non-fiction work includes a limited edition hardback on the Ken Russell/The Who movie 'Tommy' (from PS Publishing) and regular posts at Gingernuts of Horror (the series you've just read, and also a first-read response series to the work of Brian Keene). In his increasingly inaccurately labelled spare time, he podcasts - as one third of the apparently indescribable fortnightly Discord show Writeopolis(@Writeopolis), one half of What The Hell Is Wrong With Us? with George Daniel Lea, and a Patreon exclusive show on the Sherlock Holmes canon with the legendary Jack Graham and Daniel Harper.
