DEATH AND WAFFLES: A Short Story by Lish Bride, author of HOLD ME CLOSER, NECROMANCER

Matt’s childhood friend, Ashley, has been stopping by a lot lately. That might seem pretty normal, but Ashley died years ago and now she’s Death.

And tonight she wants waffles and fries.

INCLUDES AN EXCERPT OF HOLD ME CLOSER, NECROMANCER…

Sam leads a pretty normal life. He may not have the most exciting job in the world, but he’s doing all right—until a fast food prank brings him to the attention of Douglas, a creepy guy with an intense violent streak.

Turns out Douglas is a necromancer who raises the dead for cash and sees potential in Sam. Then Sam discovers he’s a necromancer too, but with strangely latent powers. And his worst nightmare wants to join forces . . . or else. 

With only a week to figure things out, Sam needs all the help he can get. Luckily he lives in Seattle, which has nearly as many paranormal types as it does coffee places. But even with newfound friends, will Sam be able to save his skin?

    Great short story

    The story started out interestingly and lead up to excitment, then it was over. It was a teaser to the next book, like an introduction.

    I thought this was a pretty good prequel to HOLD ME CLOSER, NECR

    I thought this was a pretty good prequel to HOLD ME CLOSER, NECROMANCER gave me a good feel for where the story line and charactors were going
    Ended up purchasing HOLD ME CLOSER, NECROMANCER because of the Novella

    Great Idea, Poorly Executed.

    It had grammatical errors, and I think it actually had a spelling error or two. It was a good idea, but was poorly executed unfortunately.

    Editing issues

    I enjoyed the stories, but some glaring editing problems held me up at times. I read the first story with my eleven year old and he loved it.
