Caden O'Brien's Website

As I was browsing Ilona Andrews’ website the other day, I stumbled on a post that contained a snippet of an unpublished work. No title except the tag ‘Alpha Menz’, very rough, not complete,  it was one of those pieces that made me go “what the hell?” as I read it. Several other snippets had been posted early in 2009, which I hadn’t read yet, but what I’d read sent me scrambling to find the other posts.

This was something cooked up to deal with a little brain-fry caused by working long hours on one of their published books, and all I can say is “wow, this deserves to be published!” I have to warn you, as is posted on their site, this is a dark piece with disturbing themes. A young mother and her little girl get kidnapped by … well, it’s hard to tell WHAT they are. But they’re not nice. At all. They terrify the mother and daughter, and they don’t care. Oooooo. I love dark fiction, and this is pretty dark.  Read the warnings posted with each piece, and proceed accordingly.

This is the order the pieces should be read in. It’s a little confusing on their site, but just follow this order and ignore the titles of the posts because they’re a bit misleading. And if you want to see more, be sure to drop a comment saying so. Enjoy!
