NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Cleveland, OH, United States, 11/20/2009 - Two Drollerie Press titles, “Scars on the Face of God” by C. G. Bauer, and the anthology “Vampires, Zombies, Ghosts, and Other Things That Go Bump in the Night” have been named finalists in EPIC competition.

Drollerie Press, LLC, an indie e- and print publisher of speculative fiction, is proud to announce that two of its titles: “Vampires, Zombies, Ghosts and Other Things That Go Bump in the Night” a horror anthology edited by Deena Fisher, and “Scars on the Face of God: The Devil’s Bible,” by Chris Bauer have been named finalists for the 2010 EPIC awards in the categories of best Anthology Fiction and Contributors and best Horror Fiction.

“Vampires” collects short stories by a variety of new and previously published authors, around three stories by Tim Mulcahy, a new author whose writing is described by one reviewer as, “real-people dialogue, fast and sharp and grounded in the moment.” “Scars on the Face of God” is an anti-christ novel with a twist, described by reviewers as “intriguing,” a “vivid story”, “well-written and thought provoking” and describes C. G. Bauer as “an author to watch out for.” Both books are currently available in all major ebook formats, and “Scars” will soon be available in trade paperback.

When advised that the books were finalists Ms. Fisher said: “As a relatively new publisher in a young and growing media, I am particularly gratified that EPIC has chosen two of our titles for final consideration. These are both books I’m particularly proud of for the quality of the writing and the compelling stories they contain.”
