Milky light filtered through the skeletal limbs. The moist earth exhaled mist. The stone called. A boy answered. The boy always answered…but waiting there in the creek bed was a wet thing, vile and exposed. Open and hungry with lust.
Book two in the Glint & Shade series from Eric Shane Love. A reluctant hope, hungry darkness, and a haunting pact. Join Eliot as he learns to live outside the shadow of the Dark Wood.
Eliot survived his coming-of-age rite of passage, his kohlas . . . but dark things leave dark stains. Even as he is drawn to the safety he feels among new friends, he learns of another darkness: a shadow that is hungry with lust and greedy for him.
Nightmares plague him, a hideous band of cannibalistic barbarians are on the move, and Eliot doesn’t trust the hope he feels. But the worst part may be the secret scratching in the back of his mind: when will the woodsmen come for him?
For readers of the Dark Tower Series, dark fantasy, and gothic horror fiction, this is a satisfying fever dream of twisted characters set in the land of Glint & Shade.

Praise for The Scarecrow Hunters, Glint & Shade Book One:
“The Scarecrow Hunters is a profoundly dark fantasy that slowly unravels much like a fever dream… [A] dark and engaging read, perfect for lovers of dark fantasy and anyone who doesn’t live near a dark wood, and a good start to the series.”
