THE WARBLERS is a well written novella high in the CREEPY category!

Young Dell is upset over the loss of his dog Ginger, and he feels guilty over the dog's death. If Dell hadn't let Ginger out at night, the warblers wouldn't have gotten her. Since the warblers have taken up residence in the back shed of the family farm, they are a constant threat to the family, especially to Dell's little sister. Something must be done about them and Dell's father makes the call. What are the warblers, exactly? Who is Dell's father calling? You'll have to read this quick novella to find out!

I've been meaning to read Amber's work for years now, and finally I've read one. Now I'm sorry I waited so long! The dark atmosphere here is almost palpable and that's exactly what I crave these days-more creep than gore. After carefully setting the scene though, we get our gore and a closer look at the things we've only glimpsed previously. They are well worth the wait!

Fun, fast and packing a late punch, I highly recommend this creative novella!

I bought this book with my hard earned money and if you want to buy it, you can do so here:

This story was a great burst of fun and excitement in a short, condensed book. Dirk Bradley is traveling for Christmas. He's bringing his boyfriend back to the home that he was kicked out of when he was younger. He's wants to reconnect with his family. However, fate is working against him because while he is waiting at the airport for his plane, aliens attack and start slaughtering people. It might sound like the start of a bad SyFy movie but it's no worse than visiting your father's grave when you are suddenly attacked by zombies. (Night of the Living Dead if you missed that.) The story then follows Dirk as he tries to survive and possibly even fight back.

I loved how the main character was constantly snarky and coming up with caustic sarcastic comments against himself. Even as he found himself becoming a leader, he was amazed because he didn't know what he was doing. If that zombie or alien apocalypse ever did come around, that's exactly how I hope I would act. I was a bit dissatisfied about halfway through the book when Dirk got separated from the group he was helping. They weren't mentioned in the rest of the book and seemed kind of forgotten: out of sight, out of mind. But at the same time, the story was following Dirk and since Dirk was separated from the group, then it makes sense that the story no longer follows the group. Still I would have hoped that Dirk had had a passing though of "I hope they are OK." A minor criticism. If Fallon wanted to expand on the story and create a series of books on what happened, I would buy and read every one.

This is a short story collection by one of the younger generation of horror writers. I had previously read and liked her novella [The Terminal], and I really liked the cover for this, so I got it. The stories are all good, though some of them are very short. My only complaint is that I'd really like to know more about the musical zombies from the story "Night Music."

Pulp is not dead. You can relive those thrilling days of yesteryear just by picking up this debut novella from Amber Fallon.

Dirk Bradley is so happy about finding the man of his dreams that he's actually at O'Hare International Airport with Dylan, waiting to travel home to share his good fortune with his estranged parents. But, then...

I don't want to reveal what happened, that would be too much of a spoiler, but I can tell you it happened fast and it was catastrophic.

In the words of the story's protagonist, it "would make a great Sci Fi Channel movie-of-the-week." I know it's now SyFy, but that's the quote.

You can tell The Terminal is a first published work, but the story is solid and it's an enjoyable read, in a pulpy sort of way.

Published by Fresh Pulp Press, The Terminal is available in both paperback and e-book formats. If you subscribe to Kindle Unlimited you can read this book at no additional charge. Also, if you subscribe to Amazon Prime you can read it for FREE through the Kindle Owners Lending Library.

Amber Fallon is a new voice in horror worthy of your attention. She is also an IT Nerd, Gamer, and Geek. Amber resides in the great state of Massachusetts
