Crows On The Cross





Mar 31 2008 6:38 AM

Thanks for adding Crows on the Cross - I hear you should be wary - be very wary...

Darkest Blessings -

Kristy Tallman

Franz Kafka, in his Letter to Oskar Pollak, said, "I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us...We need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide." A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us. Crows on the Cross is such a book.

Drew and Rainey, two rebels with a cause wake up a thousand miles apart disturbed by a past that won t rest. Both abused as children by more than just predators of the skin, their very faith in the person who should save them is shot to hell. Now the two of them are speeding toward each other down hell s highway in Rainey s mysterious 69 Caddie, Baby who seemingly awakens the ghosts of their past. Revelations, unfold as the miles click down steering each of them toward the other but not without paying heed to the monsters who destroyed both their lives.

-------------------

The most frightening thing in the human race is that we 'produce' the worse monsters, demons, evil, vile creatures outside of our imaginations. That's what makes Crows on the Cross such a compelling read. Imagine how sick and twisted a human has to be to become a demon?

This is a book that shows that both men and women are susceptible to the real-life monsters that live and breathe all around us. In a red '69 Caddy, you'll ride right along side them and delve right into their pasts, becoming white knuckled by the end wanting to destroy their demons for them.

-Lauren Ferrell, Publisher

The demons she creates in this book are too real, so real it will change the way you l

Craig - Dude - I know we've been sick and all but damn should we still be green since we're better?
Tweek: Well, (Twitch), I think there's another holiday coming up.
Craig: (Flips off Tweek) - I'm beginning to hate holidays.
Tweek: Well don't flip me off dude, you're starting to hurt my feelings.
Craig: (Flips off Tweek Again) Why does she dress us up in these ridiculous clothes every holiday?
Tweek: (Twitches Twice) Stop flipping me off I didn't put those clothes on you - maybe the underpants gnomes did it.
Craig: Bullshit it was that crazy horror author chick.
Tweek: You want to go with me to my doc appt. tomorrow - he can help us with our paranoia. (Twitches Three Times then flips Craigh off)
Craig: Dude why are you flipping me off?
Tweek: Because this cool beer made me do it and I would wear green everyday of the week if she gave us booze.
Craig & Tweek: Hold their mugs of beer up to you and wish you a Happy St. Patty's Day!

Thanks for the comment. I'm going to google "Madill, Oklahoma" to learn more about your town, Ray. I wonder what Canadian authors you have worked with.

Thank you for befriending me, Ray. It's amazing you can play 60 instruments where I can't even play the spoons. I am glad Troy has introduced us.

Have you ever been to Canada?

Tweek blows his little sound maker horn at Craig...."Hey Craig?"

Craig flips him off, "What?"

Tweek looks over at him with a mischievious grin, "What's your New Year's resolution?"

Craig flips him off with a befuddled look upon his face..."What?"

"What?" Tweek asks him growing confused and starting to feel a bit panicky.

"What, what?" Craig asks him flipping him off again.

"Stop that dude!" Tweek says. "Serially - what's your New Years resolution?"

Craig blows his little sound maker horn at Tweek. "I'm gonna wish to travel the world with that crazy psycho writer woman Kristy Tallman - hear she's gonna kick off the Highway to Hell tour." He flips Tweek off again.

Tweek twitches, "What?"

Craig looks at him and laughs, "What, what?"

Tweek wigs out, "I can't hear you dude - you blew that horn in my ear you twit!"

Craig flips him off again, "And your point?"

Tweek twitches and starts to play with his button on his shirt, "I can't take the pressure dude, stop it!"

Craig smiles then tells him again his New Year's resolution.
Tweek's hearing is better, "Dude, that was my resolution, you can't steal it, that's uncool."

Craig smiles, "Guess we're both gonna ride in the trunk of that 69 caddy then!"

Tweek looks relieved and worried all at the same time, "Uh, okay - I guess."

Craig flips tweek off again.

Tweek blows his horn, "It's going to be one hell of a ride - Happy New Year dude!"

Craig pops his ears, "What?"

"HAPPY DAMN NEW YEAR!" Tweek screams...

Craig flips him off, then starts singing AC/DC's Highway to Hell song....

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE - SEE YOU ON TH
