Tangled in Climbing Nightshade

Of the three novels I have published, I have a special affinity to Tangled in Climbing Nightshade. While my first novel is one I have great confidence in, The Egocentric Predicament was rather dark. Not that I mind dark, since the theme of Egocentric was a confrontation of Human Trafficking, which is humanity's worst evil, but it seems many were discomforted by the dark.

I would ask those out there to reconsider and give the novel a try. I am sure those finishing it would not be disappointed. I know this because those who have finished it were glad they did. The Egocentric Predicament was published in 2008, and is available at http://www.publishamerica.net/sc/productsearch.cgi?storeid=*24adc608a4d4335a1575c341fbaf7811634e6084. Or, you can contact me directly to obtain it, as I have a few copies on hand. For anyone desiring a signed copy of this book, just let me know. I will send one to you for only ten dollars (mainly to cover shipping costs). For those who like e-reading, this is available  on Kindle.

Okay, back to Tangled. Tangled is primarily an e-book, published at www.smashwords.com, and is only $1.99. Within smashwords, I had greater flexibility in terms of costs, unlike I did with PublishAmerica. So, this is not available in print or paper, but is available in numerous forms of e-book, such as files for Kindle, Nook, pdf, and even Word.

Tangled in Climbing Nightshade is themed to confront the issue of Family Suicide. We all have heard several stories of someone in the family going berserk and killing everyone in the family before committing suicide. The issue with this is that we're left with an unsolvable mystery because those who were in the know of the problems are now all dead. I decided to pursue the mystery through this novel.

Yes, it does approach the level of darkness found in Egocentric. Of course it does, since this is a dark subject. But I feel all adjusted people would want to understand this situation better. So, Tangled offers my perspective on where this might come from, but through a novel's setting and format.

For those who are familiar with some of my work, I believe you'll find the cost of this (two bucks) quite the bargain. Since this first became available a couple months ago, there has been only one copy sold. I would like to see the numbers climb some, since I put nearly two years into the work. Please check it out and consider the two bucks for what I believe will be an unforgettable experience.

Just go to www.smashwords.com and search for Tangled in Climbing Nightshade or Roddy J Dryer. I promise you that you will be glad you did.
