There is magic in the number three.
The three stooges. The three wise men. The three little pigs.
And now " MIDNIGHT HAT TRICK " a collection of three wonderfully chilling novels from Nova Scotia storyteller Steve Vernon.
HAMMURABI ROAD is a dark tale of retribution, backwoods justice and getting closer to a black bear than you ever dreamed possible. The story starts with the eternal triangle " three men in a pick-up truck " two in front and one duct-taped in back.
NOT JUST ANY OLD GHOST STORY is a story about coming home. It is a story that will take you to the root of storytelling.
SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME is a fast and fun read that asks the question " what would a bunch of over-the-hill old-time hockey players from Northern Labrador deal with a tour bus full of vampires? If you are having a hard time dealing with that concept " just throw the movie SLAPSHOT into a blender with the movie 30 DAYS OF NIGHT and hit frappe.
This isn't high literature, you understand. This is a cold beer, a hot cheeseburger and a warm summer day.
“Steve Vernon gets it right. SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME hits all the right notes with me. A wonderful cast of characters, great dialogue and an evil bus full of vicious vampires.” " FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND
