After the creation of the Earth and the birth of Man, the Presence seemingly vanished from existence. Once the angels and demons discovered that mortals possessed souls, they became locked in an endless conflict for ownership over mankind. But Gabriel, once the leader of Heaven’s forces, felt humanity should be allowed to live in peace. For his transgression, he was stripped of his wings and expelled from Heaven. Now, centuries later, the wars of man have brought the world to ruin. Man’s once-vaunted technology has regressed. Lance Kells, a drifting writer with no direction in his

K. C. Constantine’s Mario Balzic is one of those police chiefs so close to his people that nothing moves or even sits still in his town without his knowing how and why. His town is Rocksburg, a small coal mining town in western Pennsylvania where most of the coal has run out. In this, his fifth case, tomatoes curiously ripening out of season are the key. It begins at Muscotti’s Bar, Balzic’s refuge, when Jimmy Romanelli sells several baskets of tomatoes to Vinnie, Muscotti’s barkeep. It ends some weeks later after three deaths and a drained, disgusted Balzic, unable to

Utilizing the framework of the thriller, Constantine Sult’s second novel is the story of Timothy Spell, his fiancée Caina, neighbor Julien Servant and Servant’s wife, Rachael: four individuals whose lives become immersed in an escalating series of deceptions, betrayals and murder. Distinct in the author’s body of work for it’s heavy usage of plot and it’s investigation of distinct consequence, CONFIDANT, nonetheless, is marked by Sult’s removed narrative attention to detail and use of structure as an expressive element of craft. Furthering his theme of

With its investigation of the psyche through attention to precise physical minutia, its refusal to distinguish between the banal and the singular and its purposeful avoidance of laying emphasis any more to one detail than another, REGARD could be looked at as Constantine Sult’s mission statement: to create a novel that is plot-less, unsettling and entirely subjective. Glimpses into the life of a thirteen year old girl, whose time is primarily spent waiting between one incidental activity and another, the novel examines her encounters with boredom, friendship, isolation, violence, se
