The Outrage

William Hussey

"You know, when you live in a time of progress, it seems that progress is the only possible way. The idea that everything we'd gained, all of those hard-won rights, could be taken away from us, and that open minds could be closed again? But then the Outrage happened." Welcome to England, where the Protectorate enforces the Public Good. Here, there are rules for everything - what to eat, what to wear, what to do, what to say, what to read, what to think, who to obey, who to hate, who to love. Your safety is assured, so long as you follow the rules. Gabriel is a natural born rule-breaker. And his biggest crime of all? Being gay. Gabriel knows his sexuality must be kept secret from all but his closest friends, not only to protect himself, but to protect his boyfriend. Because Eric isn't just the boy who has stolen Gabriel's heart. He's the son of the chief inspector at Degenerate Investigations ­­­- the man who poses the single biggest threat to Gabriel's...

ReviewPraise for Witchfinder: Dawn of the Demontide: "A series to savour. William Hussey [has] a master's eye for the minutiae of fear: the quickened pulse, the hairs' bristle, and the way-in moments of purest terror - that time seems to slow to a stop." --Sam Enthoven, author of Crawlers and The Black Tattoo "William Hussey's Witchfinder trilogy is . . . A full-throated horror tale that doesn't shrink from confronting mortality head on . . . This ever-present shadow of death brings a quickening sense of terror" --SFX "Absolutely brilliant! It's dark, it's edgy, and it's dangerous." --Amazon reviewer "Cleverly crafted, this is a masterful horror story that will chill readers to the bone." --Julia Eccleshare, Lovereading4kids.co.uk "Every 10 years or so comes a book that leaves all rivals in its wake . . . and Witchfinder is The One . . . The closest thing you'll find to horror heaven." --Lancashire Evening Post "Exciting, intelligent and fast-paced, horror and fantasy collide in the best possible way. A great beginning, which leaves me wanting more." --Amazon Vine reviewer Product DescriptionEight pale hands - some with fingers stripped down to the bone - rose out of the earth. Slimy with rain, the rat-gnawed heads of four soldiers loomed into view. They moaned at the sky and their cry moulded itself into a word: 'FLLLLLLEEESSSSSSSSHHHHH!' The Demon Father has escaped from hell and walks among us, his trident symbol branded into the earth in countries all over the world. A scorching beacon. A call to arms. A sign that war is coming. Jake is struggling to harness his powers and live up to his reputation of the boy who closed the demon door. But now he must push all doubt aside. To stop the Demon Father Jake must change the course of history - embark on a treacherous journey deep into the past and into another dimension, filled with horror and pain. A place where innocent people are tried and tortured. A place where the law of the Witchfinder rules. Let the rushes be lit for there will be gallows at twilight.

Dawn of the Demontide

Dawn of the Demontide

Jake could now see the demon fully. Its body was a mass of steely sinew, its arms roped with muscle. Six fingers sprouted from its hands, each ending in lethal talons. The thing did not possess a nose; instead a large hole, bubbling with green mucus, occupied the middle of its face. Mr Pinch'stongue flickered between his teeth and slurped across his fat lips. He was hungry.When a violent storm rages around the little village of Hobarron's Hollow, a young boy is sacrificed 'for the greater good'. His blood is used to seal a mystical doorway and prevent an apocalyptic disaster known only as the Demontide.Twenty-five years later, another boy, Jake Harker, is about to be drawn into the nightmare of the Demontide. Witches and their demon familiars stalk his every move, and his dreams are plagued by visions of a 17th Century figure known only as the Witchfinder. When his father is abducted, Jake mustface the terrible secrets kept by those closest to him and a shocking truth that will change his life forever . . .
