EYES TO SEE
Coming in hardcover from Tor Books
October 2011
“A great read and unlike almost anything else I’ve read in urban fantasy: It’s hard-boiled and dark, definitely its own beast. Damn, this man can write! I’ll be standing in line for book two.” —Kat Richardson, bestselling author of the Greywalker series
“Gritty, grim, yet surprisingly personal and poetic, Eyes to See is like nothing else in its field. Make time for this one.” —Seanan McGuire, NY Times bestselling author of October Days
“At last—something new under the urban fantasy moon. Nassise’s visceral prose and dark, gritty settings propel the blind Hunt and his unique ghostly companions, Whisper and Scream, through an urban nightmare where nothing is what it seems.” —F. Paul Wilson, NY Times beselling author
“Joe Nassise’s driven, sardonic hero Jeremiah Hunt sees a whole lot more than dead people in Eyes to See. Vividly set in Boston, the novel follows Hunt through a labyrinth of undead dangers and unexpected emotion as he seeks his missing daughter and finds an unearthly serial killer. The climax, both thrilling and moving, will stick with you.” —Alex Bledsoe, author of The Girls with Games of Blood and Burn Me Deadly
In an urban fantasy that charts daring new territory in the field, Jeremiah Hunt has been broken by a malevolent force that has taken his young daughter and everything else of value in his life: his marriage, his career, his reputation. Desperate to reclaim what he has lost, Hunt finally turns to the supernatural for justice.
Abandoning all hope for a normal life, he enters the world of ghosts and even more dangerous entities from beyond the grave. Sacrificing his normal sight so that he can see the souls of the dead and the powers that stalk his worst nightmares, Hunt embarks upon a strange new career—a pariah among the living; a scourge among the dead; doomed to walk between the light of day and the deepest darkness beyond night.
His love for his departed daughter sustains him when all is most hopeless, but Hunt is cursed by something more evil than he can possibly imagine. As he descends into the maelstrom of his terrifying quest, he discovers that even his deepest fears are but prelude to yet darker deeds by a powerful entity from beyond the grave…that will not let him go until it has used him for its own nefarious purposes.

I just saw your facebook update about the contest to win a copy of your book. I have to admit I would be a first time reader, but from what I see here, you have already converted me
I hope I win!
I have read the 1st of the Jeremiah Hunt Chronicle. It stole my mind. I wanted nothing more than to find out the outcome. You brought life to characters which is so hard to do. I loved it!
I really loved your Eyes to See book. I’m sure this is going to be a great series, and I’m excited to see where it leads. I’m wondering, is there any estimation of how long it’s going to be before your second book comes out.
Victor – Book two, King of the Dead, is slated for release in hardcover and digital formats for October 2012. Excerpts should be up on the site a few months before that…
