Not sure what Horns is? It’s the latest release by author Joe Hill, due to hit shelves on February 16th.
Here’s the synopsis:
“We are each our own devil, and we make this world our hell.” –– Oscar Wilde
Proceed with caution. HORNS dead ahead.
Ignatius Martin Perrish spent the night drunk and doing terrible things. He woke the next morning with a headache, put his hands to his temples, and felt something unfamiliar, a pair of knobby pointed protuberances. He was so ill––wet-eyed and weak––he didn’t think anything of it at first, was too hung-over for thinking or worry. But when he was swaying above the toilet, he glanced at himself in the mirror over the sink and saw he had grown horns while he slept.He lurched in surprise, and for the second time in twelve hours he pissed on his feet.
So begins a twisted, terrifying new novel of psychological, supernatural suspense called HORNS (William Morrow; On Sale February 16; 2010; Hardcover; $25.99; ISBN: 978-0-06-114795-1), from Joe Hill, the bestselling author of Heart-Shaped Box.
The second son of a renowned musician and doting mother, and the younger brother of a late-night TV star, Ig Perrish had a privileged life and expectations of a bright future with his childhood sweetheart, Merrin Williams. But his seemingly perfect life takes an unexpected and horribly dark turn when Merrin is brutally murdered and suspicion falls hard on Ig.
A year passes, but Ig is nowhere near over his grief or his rage––feelings that come to a head in a lost evening of drinking and hate. When he awakes the next morning he discovers that he has undergone a surreal transformation, and is in possession of an incredible power. Everyone he encounters has the uncontrollable urge to tell him things about their innermost desires and intentions, and whenever Ig touches someone, he instantly knows their darkest secrets. It isn’t long before he turns his terrible new abilities towards vengeance. Unfortunately Ig is about to learn that when it comes to revenge, the devil is in the details …
HORNS is one of the most original and deliciously frightening novels of the supernatural anyone is bound to read this year.
