September 2023
Welcome
Fall is upon us bringing cooler nights, splashing the trees with bright colors, and creating a flurry of activity at House of Honor Books. New books, new authors, and new places await. We will be introducing these throughout this month and the rest of autumn.
T.S. (Terry) Burns is kicking off the month with the launch of his first book with House of Honor Books, The Beasts of the Boogie Woods. Then we will ride into North Texas with Jack LaFountain’s Death Stalks the Red River.
We have one very special surprise in store for fans of the Ed Landry “Moon” series. We expect to release the audio version of Wolf Moon this month. But that’s not the big surprise. The series has a new voice—Cynthia Bickford. Cynthia takes over the narration as the voice of Jazz Ledoux.
Author Events

There’s a new preacher in town. He carries a gun on his hip and his sermons are striking—literally. He arrives with the full moon and Vern and Polly Carson’s son thinks he’s the boogieman. Whatever he may be, the terror that stalks by night and the pestilence that walks in darkness has returned to Carson’s Lazy L and the town of Texumma.
Authors at Work
Rick Shaw’s second novel, Can’t Go Home will be released in October. It is the sequel to New Perspectives. Rick and Amanda pass through the portal to combat new challenges.

A football sails over a boy’s head and bounces into the woods. Little did Scott Boone realize when he chased it that his life was about to change in ways he never could have imagined. He encounters a huge hairy man who vanishes into the woods.
The experience launches Scott on a long quest to find Bigfoot. Based on the author’s own encounter, Boogie Woods is an action-packed story of cryptid creatures, criminals, and a boy’s dream come true. Buy it here.
