Cover Reveal: Monster Movie!

Hey! Look! It’s a new book! Here, then, is the cover (by artist George Ermos, who also did the paperback for Dust & Grim)! There are a lot of exclamation points! Even in the title name! Because ahhhhh! AHHHHHH!

Anyway. I’ll let the cover copy do the talking for me:


In this modern, spooky novel by New York Times bestselling author Chuck Wendig, a boy must face his many fears to save his friends from a cursed videotape.

Ethan Pitowski is afraid of everything. Luckily, his best friends don’t mind, and when their entire class gets invited to watch a long-buried horror movie at the most popular boy in school’s house, Ethan’s friends encourage him to join in the fun. But when the “scariest movie ever made” reveals itself to be not just a movie about a monster, but a movie that is a monster, only a terrified Ethan escapes its clutches. Now he must find a way to stop the monster and save his friends (and also, um, get their heads back).

With his signature balance of kid-friendly horror and humor, Chuck Wendig crafts a spookily heartfelt novel about anxiety, friendship, and finding your unique voice and inner strength.


The book comes out in September. And it is now preorderable!

First and foremost, you can of course pre-order from my local store, Doylestown Bookshop, in which case you can also ask for it signed and personalized to you. Pre-order now.

But, of course, all the usual suspects also apply: B&N, Amazon, and anywhere books are sold. (I don’t see the entry populating at places lik Bookshop.org or Powells yet, but I’m sure they’ll get there soon.)
