Ring the Bells
(The Stranger Times 5)
'Fiendishly clever and monstrously funny, C K McDonnell's latest will steal your soul and eat your brain. In the nicest possible way, of course.' TOM HOLT, author of The Portable Door and The Eight Reindeers of Christmas<BR><BR>It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas . . . <BR><BR>For most people, that means a time of celebration, relaxation and inebriation, but not for the staff of The Stranger Times. While a book club meeting ending in a triple murder isn't unprecedented, it is at least noteworthy. It quickly emerges that this is no ordinary book-club-triple-murder either, as it features a librarian possessed by a chaotic entity who has broken through from another dimension and is hellbent on vengeance. He's made a list, but he's not checking it twice as the whole of humanity is on it. Who would want to summon such a thing? And how is anyone going to be able to send it back?<BR><BR>As if that wasn't enough to be dealing with, a shocking revelation about a member of The Stranger Times team's past brings family together, but not in a way that's ever going to make it into a Hallmark movie.<BR><BR>Featuring demonically possessed Santas, blood-thirsty books and the ghost of a legendary nightclub, it's beginning to look a lot like a Christmas apocalypse . . .<BR><BR>Ring the Bells is the fifth book in the award-winning, critically acclaimed and laugh-out-loud funny The Stranger Times series.<BR><BR><BR>The reviewers loved Relight My Fire: <BR><BR>'McDonnell's world is transgressively hilarious, grimly banal and beguilingly warm. Of course there's a story that the intrepid journalists of The Stranger Times have to tease out: grave-robbing, cryogenics, a very angry witch, and a washed-up indie legend looking for a lost album, but the real joy lies in the pitfalls and pratfalls of getting there.' DAILY MAIL<BR><BR>'An absolute riot of a read.' DAILY EXPRESS<BR><BR>'Laugh-out-loud funny and full of colourful characters.' DAILY MIRROR<BR><BR>'It's no secret that here at SciFi Towers we're massive fans of the Stranger Times series by C. K. McDonnell.' SciFiNOW<BR><BR>'I loved the dry and embedded humour of this book, it's the stuff of life . . . the whole thing is great fun.' SFCROSWNEST<BR><BR>'Relight My Fire is perhaps the best since the original.' STARBURST
