Blurb:
In the shadowy recesses of Cara's mind, an ancient power has always lurked—a telepathic ability that both blessed and cursed her existence. For years, she shunned the whispers that echoed through the corridors of human consciousness. But when her twin brother Craig, a cog in the vast government machine, stumbles upon a plot so insidious it threatens to unravel the very fabric of reality, Cara is forced to confront the true nature of her gift.
As the twins descend into the labyrinthine depths beneath the Pentagon, they discover a truth far more terrifying than any earthly conspiracy. Here, in the suffocating darkness, writhe entities beyond human comprehension—monstrosities that defy the laws of nature and sanity.
With each step deeper into this realm of cosmic horror, Cara and Craig realize they've become pawns in a game played by forces older than time itself. The creatures that dwell below are not mere monsters, but the architects of a reality-bending scheme that makes the government's plot seem like child's play.
As Election Day looms, the boundary between our world and the realms beyond grows thinner. Cara and Craig must navigate a nightmarish landscape where flesh warps, minds fracture, and the very concept of humanity becomes fluid. Their desperate attempt to thwart both earthly and otherworldly machinations will lead them to the brink of madness—and beyond.
Prepare
to question your sanity in this mind-bending fusion of cosmic terror,
grotesque body horror, and dark humor. "Election Retrograde"
plunges readers into an abyss where the lines between reality and
nightmare blur, and where the fate of humanity hangs in the balance.
Election Day is coming, and with it, a reckoning that will shatter
the foundations of existence itself.
My Review:
Election Retrograde starts off with a blast and never lets up. The action just keeps rolling out page after page keeping me hooked from beginning to end as I followed Cara and Craig as they tried to stop the government from taking over everyone’s mind and the world.
Cara can read people’s minds but tries not to as she doesn’t want to invade their privacy. But of course, she does on occasion. I mean, after all, she is only human.
The government wants to send a code to everyone’s mind that will give them control. When Cara and Craig try to stop them they find something horrible underneath the Pentagon.
Things heat up even more when the monsters underneath the Pentagon are discovered. The battles rage on one after the other. The scenes become horrific at times. These were the times when I couldn’t tear my eyes off the page.
Election Retrograde may be a short story but it packs a big punch. I couldn’t take my eyes off the page as I raced to the end I had no choice as the story compelled me to do so. I didn’t want it to end but couldn’t help myself as I had to keep going.
Fighting the monsters and rooting for Cara and Craig kept me hanging on for more. The suspense of not knowing who was going to come out on top kept me on the edge of my seat as I waited to find out.
I recommend that whoever likes a good horror story grab a copy of Election Retrograde today!
