Cover Reveal: Catamorphosis by Shannon Knight

On February 12, 2026

I’m very pleased today to welcome the Cover Reveal for Shannon Knights’s upcoming Catamorphosis. I’m more than pleased, I’m excited. No one (including me) has talked more on this site about covers than Shannon Knight, so for her to have a new one, you know thought has gone into this. The cover is an eye-grabber.

By the way, I’ll be posting a Q&A with Shannon and the Cover Artist in a week or so–you’ll want to check that out. But that’s for another day. Today, we’re all about the cover itself.

But first let’s learn a little bit about the book and author, shall we? It’ll just take a moment, and then we can all take a peak at the cover.

About the Book:

Cancer was the start of Jasmine’s life falling apart. Her body betrayed her, her husband left, and as she lay dying, the only one remaining at her side was her orange tabby, Otto.

Then something uncanny occurred.

…

At a fishing lake in the Oregon Coast Range, Jasmine is ready to reassess her priorities when a stranger catnaps Otto. One transgression leads to another, and Jasmine has never believed in turning the other cheek.

Jasmine is transforming, but whether the cancer still has anything to do with her mutating cells is beyond her. Otto has given her something, and anything from her sweet boy can only be a boon.

Jasmine may have died, but she came back.

And when a cat’s around, no one is surprised by a body count.

Book Details:

Title: A Lonely Broadcast: Book One by Kel Byron
Genre: Horror, Thriller
Age Category: Adult
Format: Paperback/Ebook/Audiobook
Length: 318 Pages
Publication Date: June 2, 2023

About the Book:

If you find yourself driving down a winding mountain road near an endless stretch of pines, try tuning in to 104.6 the radio station that shouldn’t exist.

The village of Pinehaven has a secret of monstrous proportions. Evelyn McKinnon, a radio host falling on hard times, finds herself utterly unprepared when she learns that the radio station isn’t just for entertainment. It’s a watchtower.

She’s stalked by a bird with human eyes. Her new co-host won’t stop singing show tunes. And when the fog rolls in, the beasts of Pinehaven Forest begin their brutal hunt. Evelyn and her friends are suddenly face-to-face with something much scarier than ravenous flesh-giants and vengeful responsibility.

‘A Lonely Broadcast’ is a darkly comedic tale that mixes elements of cosmic horror, gruesome gore, and a touching story about friendship, grief, and finding hope when all seems lost. It’s also the story of an unhinged woman’s personal war with a goddamn bird.

About the Authors:

Kel is a horror author whose work focuses on rural terror, character-driven stories, and weaving gruesome imagery with touching narratives about human bonds. Her work was inspired by the lingering spookiness of growing up in an isolated rural area and the superstitions and folktales that surrounded her childhood in the wetlands of Michigan.

She began her writing career in college where she would disgust her classmates on purpose, writing short stories about body horror, monsters, and the fear of the unknowable. When she joined Reddit’s NoSleep forum under the username “Wendingus”, her gloomy yet comedic stories about the gruesome folk horrors surrounding a fictional Appalachian village quickly formed a humble yet loyal fanbase.

Kel’s online work has been narrated on YouTube by voice actors Autumn Ivy, MrCreepypasta, and others. After disappearing from the internet for several years to get treatment for multiple tumors, she returned in 2023 to completely re-write and re-imagine her previous work as a formal novel, beginning a trilogy that will continue in 2024. Kel’s work often focuses on themes such as queer identity, grief, mental health, trauma recovery, and platonic love. Although horror is her main genre of choice, she enjoys weaving in comedic moments of feral, chaotic dark humor.

Today, she lives in Saginaw, Michigan where she works as a graphic designer and neonatal kitten rescuer. She likes to lie face-down on the kitchen floor, perch like a gargoyle, and eat leaves that she finds on the ground.

Title: Coal Gets In Your Veins by Cat Rector
Genre: Horror, Fantasy, Paranormal Romance
Age Category: Adult
Format: Hardcover/Paperback/Ebook
Length: 400 Pages
Publication Date: October 1, 2024

About the Book:

Penny Harbour was once a booming coal mining town, full of industry and possibility. But jobs like that come at a price. Accidents. Cave-ins. Explosions. The residents fed the ground with their blood, and coal dust settled inside them. Eventually, the world moved on from coal. The mines closed, the jobs left, and the grief stayed rooted in the people.

Laurel is trying to carve out a decent life in what remains of the town. Her family has lived in the Harbour for generations. She’s seen the best and worst it has to offer. But no matter what she wants for herself, her husband’s boot is still on her neck. She’s survived him for two decades, and she’s just about out of reasons to stay.

Just up the hill, Spencer is wading through his eternity mourning the deaths of his great loves. Penny Harbour is his own personal purgatory. He’s a queer vampire in a dying, conservative rural community, and everyone’s blood is full of grit and ashes. It’s the perfect place to slip into isolation and punish himself for all he’s lost.

But Penny Harbour has a life all its own. Children with a penchant for lighting fires. Unmarked graves when mines used to be. Traditions built to lift each other out of grief. Personal hells that live behind closed doors. And when the town sinks its teeth into someone, it would sooner rip their throat out than let them go.

Part romantic vampire horror, part rural Atlantic Canadian memorial pyre, Coal Gets In Your Veins is a novel about generational trauma and what it will do to keep its claws in you.

—

This book is part of a queer paranormal horror series with romantic themes and handles heavy, complicated topics such as generational trauma, spousal abuse, grief, and cheating. A full list of trigger warnings can be found on Cat’s website.

About the Authors:

Cat Rector grew up in a small Nova Scotian town and could often be found simultaneously reading a book and fighting off muskrats while walking home from school. She devours stories in all their forms, loves messy, morally grey characters, and writes about the horrors that we inflict on each other. After spending nearly a decade living abroad, she returned to Canada to resume her war against the muskrats.

When she’s not writing, you can find her playing video games, spending time with loved ones, or staring at her To Be Read pile like it’s going to read itself.

Some things are worse than death… Or high school

Xenia Findlay should be dead—just like her parents, and her best friend Bethany. After the crash, she moves to the tranquil small town of Porter Valley to live with her great aunt. But her recovery is plagued by terrible headaches…and hallucinatory visits from her dead friend.

Worse, the students of Porter Valley High have begun to disappear.

As the missing teenagers join Bethany in Xenia’s visions she begins to suspect that everything she thought she knew—about the world, about death, and about herself—is wrong.

Which means a ghastly force really is lurking in the shadows of her idyllic new home.

And unless Xenia can unlock the power she’s discovered, she might just lose herself, her town—and her very soul.

About the Author:

Russell Isler was born in Champaign, Illinois. As a child, his fate was sealed the evening his parents took him to see Star Wars. Practically obsessed with spaceships, robots and dragons for his entire life, he pursued a career in animation. After a couple decades jumping between the video game and commercial television VFX fields he stumbled into a new group of friends, who went on to create the award winning Adventures of the League of S.T.E.A.M. web-series. In addition to becoming head of VFX for the League, Russell also acted in several of the episodes. The League also gave him his first taste of writing. His writing on the series finale won “Best Screenplay” in the 2017 Dublin Web Festival. By then he realized that he’d had so much fun writing those screenplays that he should probably write down that book idea that had been living in the back of his head.

Even after a man is found hanging from the ceiling of an abandoned hospital, covered head to foot in bite marks—marks like the ones Jai, her boyfriend, leaves on her—Trinity can’t seem to distance herself.

Title: Performances of a Death Metal Bard by Rob Leigh
Genre: Fantasy, Horror
Age Category: Adult
Format: Paperback/Ebook
Length: 146 Pages
Publication Date: October 31, 2024

About the Book:

Unfortunately, Death Metal doesn’t get much play in this sleepy, peaceful, actually kind of boring kingdom. Of course not. It’s tough inventing a genre on your own, and it doesn’t help when all the instruments you’ve tried up to this point don’t match the brutality necessary for a dark and heavy performance.

My coin only seems to be enough to get me to the next run-down village, and it’s dwindling fast.

To make matters worse, my newest lute is not normal. It never stays in tune, it’s barely holding together, and it keeps whispering to me. Over and over, demands for vengeance and murder echo in my head, with the promise that I’ll find the sound I need if I just listen to the voices.

So what’s a starving bard to do?

Performances of a Death Metal Bard is a brutal fantasy adventure inspired by The Witcher and Metalocalypse, merging the episodic travels of a musical elf with the darkness, blood, and raw riffs of the heaviest metal the kingdom has ever seen.

Remember what’s out there in the dark.

Valdaris was a middling artillery captain before his people fell to a conquering rival.

Then he fell further still, snatched from the battlefield by a ruthless cult and cast into the depths of ultimate evil.

Transformed by powers he can’t begin to understand, Valdaris seeks revenge on those who tried to destroy him. Instead, he’ll face monsters beyond his most terrifying nightmares. He joins with allies caught in the chaos of his war with evil, oblivious to his true nature and the darkness closing in on their world.

Full of dragons, monsters, found family, magical weapons, intense duels, and epic battles, The Fall of Selvandrea follows a vigilante’s quest against malice, greed, and the shadow within. Heroes and villains join against the rising dark, and against a tyrant whose schemes may destroy them all.

And from calamity’s ashes, a new power shall rise.
