The Grandmaster
What people are saying about The Grandmaster:
- “The Grandmaster is a cleverly concocted novella combining tragedy and hope from the bleakest sadness and intolerable cruelty to an unconditional kindness." --- Norm Goldman, bookpleasures.com
- "The Grandmaster is a remarkable story that illustrates both the depths of depravity humanity is capable of, as well as the boundless strength of the human spirit." --- clubreading.com
- “Grandmaster is an exceptional view on the horrors of the Holocaust. This is truly a rambling tale of the mind and the paranormal realm. Definitely a holocaust story within it own rights. This book is a fascinating read!” --- Ghostwriter Literary Reviews
The Grandmaster is available now at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble and Bards and Sages.
The characters of The Grandmaster are now used as role playing characters. Check it out!
In Our House: Tantalizing Tales of Terror
NOMINATED FOR THE PUSHCART PRIZE!
Peter A. Balaskas is your host as he escorts you into his very own extraordinary soiree of speculative short fiction. Let’s hear what others have to say about Peter’s “house”:
- “Like Patricia Highsmith or even early Stephen King, Balaskas is shaping himself into a modern master of magic and terror. Not just the magic of the supernatural, but the simple magic between people; not just the terror of the monstrous, but the scare of ordinary people pushed to extraordinary extremes and desperate measures with catastrophic consequences.” --- Marlon James, NY Times Editor's Choice and LA Book Prize Finalist of John Crow's Devil and The Book of Night Women
- “In his short story collection In Our House, Peter Balaskas delights in presenting to us terrible men and then further delights in delivering to them their well-earned comeuppance. A wicked read.” --- David Fuller, Edgar Award Nominee for Sweetsmoke
- “In Our House is a mosaic of prosaic poetry at its twisted finest; intense, plot-driven stories bent on creativity and warped with mischief. Step aside King, Bradbury, and Poe, for a new master to the genre has arrived.” --- Michael Mehas, author of Stolen Boy
- “Set in what Hawthorne called that neutral territory...where the Actual and Imaginary may meet, these stories plumb the night side of our collective unconsciousness with the wit and skill of a seasoned storyteller. At his best, in stories like Crossing the Styx and Wash Cycle, Peter Balaskas makes the distinction between speculative fiction and literary fiction all but irrelevant: simply put, he keeps us reading.” --- Pete Duval, author of Rear View
In Our House: Tantalizing Tales of Terror is available now at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble and Bards and Sages.
