The Scrubs is a horror novella and the first book in a trilogy of novellas based in this fictional world. Feel free to leave your thoughts and feelings about this book.
PREMISE: James Jeter, the notorious serial killer with a sixth sense, holds court inside London's Wormwood Scrubs Prison. He's the focus of the "North Wing Project." Under the influence of a hallucinogen, Jeter can create an alternative world known as "The Rift" containing the souls of his victims.
Pardons are on offer to inmates who'll enter The Rift. Michael Keeler has nothing to lose and little to live for. He's sent into The Rift to learn the identity of Jeter's last victim.
It's a mission where the guilty can be redeemed, but at a price...
The Scrubs is published in print by Bad Moon Books and is available in ebook form from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Sony, Diesel, Smashwords and Apple iBookstore.
Praise for The Scrubs :
“The Scrubs is one merciless piece of work, in both the setting of Wormwood Scrubs prison and its colorful, even tragic, inmates, Simon has created a terse, tense, and powerful novella that closes in on the reader like the worst case claustrophobia you've ever had. An excellent achievement, and a real milestone in Simon's career." — Gary A. Braunbeck, author of Coffin Country
“The Scrubs...it's a journey to a Twilight Zone of our time." — Mort Castle, author of The Stranger
“Lean, mean fear machine - The Scrubs is gruesomely inventive entertainment.” — Simon Clark, author of This Rage of echoes
“In this fast-paced cybernoir tale, Simon invites us to quite literally step inside the circus tent od a mad criminal mind...before zipping it right up behind us for good. This is, simply put, an incredible novella." — Michael Arnzen, author of Bitchfight and Play Dead
“The Scrubs is a superb, fast-paced journey through the hell of incarceration...and way, way beyond.” — Tim Lebbon, author of Dawn
“Truly a remarkable book and I highly recommend it.” — David Niall Wilson, author of Ennui
“If you are looking for a quick read that is sure to leave you breathless until the final page is turned, you cannot do any better than The Scrubs.” — Horrorworld
"This is a fasinating, disturbing journey.” — Dark Discoveries Magazine
"A surreal horror trip.” — Horror Fiction Review
"if you like your horror to be fast, hard-hitting and unflinching, then you will love The Scrubs.” — Centipede Literary Supplement

Sadly, other projects have gotten in the way. Scrubbers has sat partially written on my computer for 18mths.
But I will announce it here that Bad Moon has agreed to put out the final two books in the trilogy in 2012. I think they're going to be good. I've been really pushing what can happen in that world and keeping true to the first story.
Craig, post a review on Amazon or somehwere. Your opinion counts.

The thing I've noticed about Amazon is that their reviews are being used as reference for other review sites and libraries. So every bit helps. Thanks for posting a review on H/world.
