Book Description

January 19, 2011
In all the deepest pits and in all the rank, vile dungeons that make up the illusion of Hell, no fiend is more feared than the dread demon, and for good reason. These pitiless monsters feed on bile and blood, they lap up the screams of the damned, they corrupt and destroy and they hate with an unrelenting fury.
And to release one upon the world is the ultimate in black sin.
When Commander William Jern and his wife Gayle are given an opportunity to move into one of the spacious Colonial homes on the Village Green, they jump at the chance. But the Jern's new dream home quickly becomes an icy nightmare, as death stalks them relentlessly. It comes unheralded out of the night, and like all of us, they are woefully unprepared. Yet regardless of his state of readiness, William Jern must face terrors beyond imagination in order to save his daughter whose body had become a frozen vessel for a horror summoned out of the great Void.
With the help of his son Will, a boy struggling to find the courage to be a man, and an old woman, who has foreseen the terrifying manner in which she will die, William undergoes the ultimate test to see how far a father will go to save his child.

Excellent Read!! February 20, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
Thank you Peter for creating such an intriguing story. The characters have depth, and meaning. They are flawed which makes them more believable and infinitely more identifiable. I read this book in two days, blowing off everything else that I had planned for the weekend. If you love a ghost story that goes beyond the paranormal than you will love this tome. The book flows well and is an excellent read, my only regret is that the other two books in the trilogy are not yet out. Grab a blanket (to hide under), make sure the doors are locked and just pretend that noise you heard was the cat. Looking forward to each and every edition!

The Horror of the Shade by Peter Meredith is a really good horror story.

I made the mistake of reading this book straight through the night. The Horror of the Shade will make you get out of bed in the middle of the night and turn the lights on.

The descriptive power unleashed in this book will satisfy horror fans of all ages. It is not a book for people who are squeamish, sickened or disturbed by unpleasantness. It is a book for those who like to feel the tiny hairs stand up on the back of your neck, your blood turn cold and your pulse quicken.

Author Peter Meredith shows to possess great talent and artistic ability. The Horror of the Shade captures your mind and drags it through the depths of darkness into scary places and situations as the story unfolds.

A really good horror novel! If you are not faint of heart, put this book in your top 5 horror books to read.

More About the Author

Unlike almost every other author I run into, I wasn't reading at the age of two and writing my first poem by my third birthday. Quite the opposite, I hated to write. I never learned to type and my penmanship hasn't progressed beyond a second grade level. Since I would fret over every little error, an e-mail used to take me close on an hour to write if the client was important enough.

But that all changed last year at about this time. With the economy in the dumps, my company decided to rework our website and in order to attract attention to it, I was told I should write articles and submit them online. So I painstakingly wrote five articles. They were terrible.

Not terribly written, just dull. Writing about the technical aspects of LED lights is super boring and not just to me but for everyone. So with Halloween coming up, I decided to write about the two super-natural occurrences that I had been involved with instead. The boss wasn't exactly happy, but seeing as she's my wife, what could she do?

After that, I wrote a book. I said to myself, hey you wrote a five thousand word short story, why not write a book? How hard could it be? When it was done, I said, why not make it a trilogy? How hard could it be?
