Death Goes To Bat

 A Death in Toledo is my latest release and a return to the world of Grim Reapers introduced in Death Gets a Book. 

A Death in Toledo is the story of a Grim Reaper, tasked to return the soul of Lawrence Nurdle. Lawrence is a dork who fancies himself a goth edge lord who, tries to win the favor of his ex-girlfriend, only to get himself killed by a coven of vampires. 

Its a simple enough task for Death until the leader of the vampire coven, Drokk, transforms Lawrence with the blood ritual. Lawrence is no longer dead, he's undead and that creates a problematic loophole for Death. Death can only escort dead souls to the River Styx and on to the Hereafter. 

Now, Death must convince Lawrence to kill himself so he can be brought to the end of his mortal journey. Drokk is not willing to give up Lawrence so easily, he's got plans for him as well. And it just may have to be settled over a game of the great American pastime, a baseball game.

Supernatural beings square off again competing for another lost soul in the all-new Death book, A Death in Toledo. 

This book is a stand alone set in the world of Grim Reapers I've created. You can enjoy reading it without having read Death Gets a Book. Or, if you've already enjoyed Death Gets a Book this a fun new story featuring a different cast of Grim Reapers set in the same world.

A Death in Toledo is available now in Paperback and Kindle eBook and is available to subscribers of Kindle Unlimited. It is just 99 cents for the Kindle version until Jan. 24th, 2021.

South of the Bratwurst

BRATS IN HELL premiers Tuesday, May 30th. Touted as "The WURST Book Ever Written", the latest release from Frank J. Edler is being marketed with a fondness and nostalgia for travel along the I-95 corridor between New York and Florida.

You've never SAUSAGE a book! Brats In Hell, my latest release, is the story of Otto Van Der Noodle and his award winning bratwursts. The bratwursts that taste so good, he influences the power balance over the forces controlling Hell. When it came time to start promoting BRATS IN HELL, I focused in on the bratwurst theme of the story. How do I promote a book about bratwursts?

The answer was simple, because from my childhood forward I traveled along Interstate 95 between New York and Florida more times than I could possibly count. Those who've traveled along I-95 will instantly know where I'm going with this. Those who haven't, let me clue you in.

There is a tourist attraction that people love to hate in the town of Dillon, South Carolina. It's called SOUTH OF THE BORDER. It's called that because, well, its just south of the border between North and South Carolina. It's that kitschy, clever type of pun that gives the place its loathsome charm. But half the fun of South of the Border is getting there.

There are said to be something in the neighborhood of 275 billboards up and down I-95 advertising SOUTH OF THE BORDER. The tourist trap itself features a motel, restaurant, fireworks shop and other shopping facilities and attractions. Each billboard either advertises a specific area of the complex or simply lure you in with something funny, eye-catching and a tease of how much further you have to go until you get there. It's the perfect distraction from the long drive to keep an eye out for Pedro and his billboards.

My absolute favorite were the ones that had a gigantic three dimensional hot dog on them that would read, "You never SAUSAGE a place!" So when it came time to promote my book about sausages the only logical conclusion was to take a cue from the experts of marketing, SOUTH OF THE BORDER billboards.

And just like that magical moment when you finally see the giant sombrero along side of I-95 in
Dillon, South Carolina, you can pick up your copy of BRATS IN HELL after having suffered through miles of my cheesy advertising and hold it proudly like a cheap souvinier and say, "I've made it to the WURST book ever written." and love every rotten moment of the pun.
