It’s always a delight to find my work on shortlists! This year, The Briar Book of the Dead is a finalist for Best Fantasy Novel and my story “Bell, Book and Lamp” from the Bound in Blood anthology (edited by Johnny Mains, published by Titan) is a finalist for the Best Horror Novella. Both are in excellent company!
A huge thanks to the judges and the organisers who put in so much work as volunteers to keep these awards running.
