Cover Reveal: Slug Train by Chad Retterath

FanFiAddicts, have we got something special (and more than a little weird) for you!

Late last year, we had a blast doing the cover reveal for Chad Retterath’s The Masked Crows:

Well, Chad is back with another cover–and let me tell you, it’s odd enough that it has me curious!

What’s this book you might ask? Well…it’s called:

Slug Train

Synopsis:

Nowhere is as dangerous as the Wildwood. Enormous insects inhabit the forest, happy to devour any humans that step foot within. As long as humans stay out of the forest, they are safe.

The slug train follows a strict schedule, transporting humans through the untamed central forest of Wildwood Isle on Mondays and Thursdays. Many people, like Chester Peekman, use the slug as a means to commute to the opposite side of Wildwood Isle. Chester is happy to escape the daily monotony of his career to look into the dangerous, dark forest on the long ride from Hannifer Bay to Fothwood.

Every day is dreaded, every moment at work a nightmare. The slug train is a brief interlude from that existential despair, a relaxing event, until the slug leaves its own route, bringing its passengers into the dangerous depths of the Wildwood.
