Herbert West

Mike Bennett's latest podcast is now uploaded and live, and in it he reads, From the Dark, the first part of H.P. Lovecraft's classic tale of horror, Herbert West: Reanimator.

Mike Says:

'I think it's one of the best things I've ever done, I'm really pleased with it.

I also reveal a little of my first homemade audio books from way back in the 1980s, and share some news about the ongoing process of writing the next chapters in the Underwood and Flinch Chronicles.'

Sun, Sea & Sanguine Fluid

The long awaited return of the multi award winning saga by Mike Bennett, is finally over with the return of the Underwood and Flinch chronicles, Volume 3 Blood and smoke.

"Blood & Smoke" is a great new audio novel from Mike Bennett. Though I highly recommend the podcast to all fans of horror and suspense, this does come with the warning that the subject matter is extremely graphic and intense in content. It is never gratuitous, however, for to hold back anything depicted in its chapters would betray the premise and the story would suffer for it.

   “Blood & Smoke” proves that not only has Bennett grown as an artist over his last few novels, he is also brave enough to follow a story where it leads. Stephen King stated that once he finished “Pet Sematary” he put it away in a drawer thinking it too extreme for publication. The shock and awe of this high adrenaline narrative has much the same effect of that King novel or “The Exorcist.”

   If you can endure the extreme horror of writers like Edward Lee, I highly recommend this venture by Mike Bennett. He takes the listener into the bleak darkness of addiction and obsession, but rather than relying on gore and shock, it is his emotionally charged depictions of the damned characters at its core that keep you hooked.

Underwood & Flinch Chronicles

As you all are aware, I have Produced a lot of artwork relating to the Vampire Podcast Underwood & Flinch. Well I have news Ladies and Gentlemen, The Podcast has gone to Electronic print. Thats right, if you enjoy the podcast, why not pop over to Amazon and get a copy of the first 2 volumes.

These books are a must for those of you who prefer a more mature vampire story, unlike the Recent stories and Films aimed at Hormonal teenagers. I can Guarantee, you will be by the end of the second book crying out for the third novel which is currently been written by the award winning Mike Bennett

Bill Tutte Memorial Fund Update

Tutte tribute could be in place by Christmas

The Bill Tutte Memorial working group was set up last year after Journal news editor, Alison Hayes, got the backing of the town council for the newspaper’s campaign for public recognition for Tutte’s code-breaking efforts – which were described by Winston Churchill as the “greatest intellectual feat of the Second World War” and were said to have shortened the conflict by at least two years, saving millions of lives.

The working group set out to establish a memorial to the man whose genius enabled him to break the Lorenz cipher which was being used by the Nazi high command to send coded messages to its commanders in the field.  Read the full story HERE
