Aberration Book Launch and Bloghop!

Today’s the big day, the release of Lisa Regan’s

second novel, the super creepy crime thriller,
Aberration.

I LOVE this book, and actually had a bit of a hand in it, working extensively with Lisa over the last couple years to help her get it just right.  And oh, how right it is!!  Go read my Amazon review here.

And now, to celebrate this momentous occasion, Lisa is hosting the Aberration Bloghop.  On June 6^th  & 7^th, participants will list their top 5 choices for the most aberrant characters in fiction, television, or movies.  If you're a writer, feel free to include a short paragraph about your own aberrant character.

Participants will be entered to win an Amazon gift card for either $25, $15, or $10, plus, 1 of 3 signed copies of the Aberration paperback and 1 of 5 ebooks.  How cool is that?!

Here’s my entry:

#5 - Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest by Ken Kesey

A cold, heartless monster who revels in her power over those in desperate need of compassion.

#4 - Max Cady in Cape Fear (formerly The Executioners) by John D. MacDonald

I love revenge stories, but this guy is insanely twisted and obsessed.

#3 - Tom Ripley from The Talented Mr. Ripley by Patricia Highsmith

A seriously insecure and manipulative psychopath who gets away with murder.

#2 - Professor Joe Carroll, from the FOX television series The Following. 

Played by deliciously sexy Brit, James Purefoy, Joe is a diabolical serial killer who creates a cult of serial killers, and turns the act of murder into a pseudo-sexual experience for himself and his followers. 

#1 - Hannibal, from the NBC television series (based on Thomas Harris’ character in Red Dragon,) 

This character is suave, charismatic, and brilliant.  He loves the culinary arts, and, when not assisting the FBI in solving serial murder cases, prepares extraordinary carnivorous meals for his friends and colleagues.  Trouble is and unbeknownst to his guests, the main ingredients are harvested from his many victims.  The food preparation and dining scenes, while beautifully choreographed and filmed, totally gross me out.  

Those are all long-standing villains, of course, but if you want to sink your teeth into a few new members of this elite Club Aberration, check out Lisa’s books.  

Finding Claire Fletcher has the worst kind of monster, one who preys on children.

  

And in Aberration, you’re dumped deep into the psychopathic mind of an obsessive creep who’ll have you constantly looking over your shoulder for crazed stalkers.
