A Distasteful Horror Story by Johnny Mains to be Out of Print at the end of July.


We will be ending publication of Johnny Mains' A Distasteful Horror Story at the end of this month, so there are just three weeks in which to buy a copy of the paperback or ebook. 

"A darkly humorous, satirical look at the tight-knit world of horror writers - and their fans. Contains no scenes of violence against actual books, only their authors”

Johnny Mains has been prominent in the horror genre ever since his 2010 debut anthology, Back from the Dead: The Legacy of the Pan Book of Horror Stories, which won the British Fantasy Award in 2011 for best anthology.
