It is not self-aggrandizing to say, nor is it meant to be boastful, when I tell you that I have a deep and abiding love for you. If we’ve known each other for years and consider ourselves thick as thieves, or if you befriended me just because we met a long time ago, I want…

Featured Title

ALL THESE SUBTLE DECEITS (Dark Hart Books, October 4, 2022)

“With his thriller-horror novel All These Subtle Deceits, C. S. Humble demonstrates the benefit of combined genres in the hands of a shockingly talented author: Brisk pacing with fully realized characters in a brilliantly conceived setting. This is seamless hybrid fiction at its very best. My recommendation: Follow this author to new ground in the horror universe.”

– S.P. Miskowski, author of I Wish I Was Like You
