Here's what people are saying about SHADOW CATALYST.

“Sharply written, page-turning tales from one of the most promising young writers I’ve seen in a long time.” – K. Bennett, author of Pay Me in Flesh

“Shadow Catalyst is the best collection of otherworldly tales of mystery and terror this side of Stephen King. Brayden Hirsch’s debut effort turns into a blood-curdling, white knuckle joy ride that’s like climbing onto a roller-coaster and waiting for the bottom to drop out. Gives a whole new meaning to stories that have to be read with all the lights on!” – Jon Land, bestselling author of Strong at the Break

“If you so choose to sample but one chapter of this budding author’s story-craft, you may well never return from a life of continual ‘just-one-more-chapter’ jitters.” – The Miller Brothers, authors of the award-winning Codebearers Series

“Written with a command of imagery, a unique voice, and a captivating style, Shadow Catalyst is a page turner from the start.” – Nicole J. Persun, author of A Kingdom’s Possession
