Update on last book in "Nightfall Garden" series
I haven’t written an update on “The Labyrinth” in a while. I’m moving the publication date back to come out two weeks before Halloween (good timing). This isn’t because I haven’t been writing.
Like all novels, this one has taken on a life of its own. In order for me to do justice to the story and give my characters the respect they deserve, I’m taking a couple of extra months to make sure everything is perfect (or as perfect as can be). In other words, I want to wrap up “Nightfall Gardens” in style.
I can tell you that I’ve really let my imagination run wild in this book and that unlike “Lost” I plan on wrapping up all of the mysteries that still linger from the first two books in the trilogy. It’s also going to be much more mammoth than “Nightfall Gardens or “The Shadow Garden.”
The cover is currently in the can (as they say). Tony Roberts really knocked himself out continuing in the vein of the first two books with a stellar creepy cover. I’ll unveil that down the road as the publication date draws near.
Also, there will be some cool contests I’ll be announcing here soon as well as a big “Nightfall Gardens” party that’ll take place in NYC in the fall. I’m open to hitting the road for a couple of reading stops after the book comes out, so email me if you have any suggestions.
Thanks for your patience. I promise it’ll be worth your wait, and if you haven’t told your friends about NG, please share the word. Thanks!

New Nightfall Gardens Companion Album Released
Take an aural plunge into the atmosphere of Nightfall Gardens with a new companion album based on the dark fantasy trilogy.
I'm excited to announce ten stellar musicians from the United States, Mexico, and the United Kingdom joined forces to create a companion piece to the haunt-scape and characters of the books.
Listen to the whole brooding album on Bandcamp and be sure and read/review the books on Goodreads if you haven’t done that yet.
