Produktbeschreibung

They Call Themselves the Unseen. In every major city in the world, they lurk-scheming, controlling...and feeding. Emily Gordon knows them all too well. A pillar of the Omaha community, she is the wealthy and respected founder of a local shelter for homeless teenagers. No one knows the source of her fortune, nor what she did before she came to town. But that past resurfaces the night one of her charges is found brutally murdered, and she learns to her horror that the Unseen are involved. They have set their sights on Omaha. And Emily is the only one who can stop them. As werewolves, demons, and other dark forces align against her, Emily fights to keep from reverting to the woman she once was. But with the Unseen, it always comes down to wet work. She'll have to risk the new life she has built for herself to have any chance of defeating them. "Fans of Jim Butcher will love this fast-paced supernatural thriller, filled with just the right balance of horror and heart. Rotundo knows how to grab hold of a reader and not let them go until the very last page." --David Walton, author of The Genius Plague

Autorenporträt

Matt wrote his first story"The Elephant and the Cheese"when he was eight years old. It was the first time he had ever filled an entire page with writing. To his young mind, that seemed like a major accomplishment. It occurred to him shortly thereafter that writing stories was what he wanted to do with his life.

Matt gravitated to science fiction, fantasy, and horror at an early age, too. He discovered Ray Bradbury's "The Fog Horn" in a grade school reader, and read it over and over whenever he got bored in class. (Needless to say, he read it a lot.) Other classics soon followedDune and Lord of the Rings and Foundation, the usual suspects. As a boy, he often pretended his bicycle was Shadowfax, and that he was Gandalf, riding like mad for Minas Tirith. Yeah, he was that kind of kid. Half the time, his family and friends didn't know what the hell he was talking about.

Matt's story "Alan Smithee Lives in Hell" placed second in the 1997 Science Fiction Writers of Earth Contest. In 1998, he attended Odyssey. The workshop led directly to his first sale"Black Boxes," in Absolute Magnitude. In 2002, Matt won a Phobos Award for "Hitting the Skids in Pixeltown." He was a 2008 winner in the Writers of the Future Contest. He has since continued to publish in various magazines.

Matt lives in Nebraska. He has husked corn only once in his life, and has never been detasseling, so he insists he is not a hick.
