Praise for Derek Muk

“Sometimes a book comes in the mail and you think Sweet Baby Moses, what is going on here? The Demon Seeds was one of these titles. However, I did have an idea of what I was getting into having read the author’s work before, aside from the outrageous cover.  The gruesome points are pulpy in paperback hay-day voice and reveal.  As far as an hour of fun goes, you can do a heck of a lot worse than Muk’s The Demon Seeds.”  –Unnerving Magazine

“A quick read, fun and engaging, with interesting characters and that setup for many more adventures.”  — The Horror Fiction Review

“Producers take note: most of the case studies in this collection would make a popular TV series, say – Most Haunted meets The Twilight Zone.”  Geoff Nelder, on The Occult Files of Albert Taylor

Devil’s Maintenance –Ebooks

Original price was: $4.98.Current price is: $3.98.
What would the U.S. government do if they actually caught the Devil? Where would they keep him? What would they do with him? If they used him, what would the cost be?  In an abandoned nuclear submarine buried beneath the Greenland ice shelf, the National Security Agency’s new Information Assurance Technical Director, Ray Peterson, is revealed the greatest secret the U.S. government has ever kept. Daniel Edgar Vincent Ivan Liberty, codenamed Devil, has an intellect so vast, there is no puzzle he can't solve, no computer system too complex to create or control, and the thing he enjoys most is manipulating the fleeting lives of human beings.
