WTF is The Taternomicon? The Taternomicon is an anthology of stories from a group of Book.io’s first “living” authors, pitting their series characters, or personal universes… against the overpowering essence of potatoes. Monsters, smugglers, Elder Gods, a wizard, and so much more. It is the perfect mashup of horror, fantasy and nonsense.
Paul Jenkins (@mypauljenkins) has been creating, writing, and building franchises for more than 25 years in the film, graphic novel, and video game industries. Paul is an NYT bestseller, has been nominated for two BAFTA Awards, and received the PRISM award for contributions in storytelling. He is the creative force Bitcoin Origins.
Tom Leveen (@tomleveen) is an award-winning novelist and Bram Stoker Award finalist with nine novels. He’s written for the comic book series SPAWN and is currently writing fiction in the Battle Tech universe for Catalyst Games labs.
Joseph Eleam and Tim Canada (@Wh0aden and @TCanada88) are to be held responsible for the adventures of The Wizard Tim. They wrote the first fiction story to be published by Book.io and it is VERY fitting that Tim reprise his adventures in the first fully original anthology published by Book.io.
Joseph Nassise (@Jnassise) is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling writer, editor, and writing coach. He’s the author of more than sixty titles, including the Templar Chronicles series, the Great Undead War series, and the Jeremiah Hunt trilogy. His book THE HERETIC was the first title by an NYT bestselling author to be published by Book.io and so there was no way he could avoid pitting his character against… spuds. It was in the stars.
@StevenSavile is an award-winning, bestselling author with so many credits in so many genres it’s difficult to keep track. He’s currently writing and designing and writing role-playing games for Lex Ocultum. His novel Silver, which was one of the top bestselling books of 2011, can be minted through Book.io. Steve and author David Niall Wilson also collaborated on a weird western novel with everything from the devil’s gunfighter to the first woman Lilith and her crow men as characters that has become something of a cult classic. Now he has turned his acerbic wit to the PUNishment of potatoes…
Jon F. Merz (@jonfmerz) is a bestelling author with over 60 titles under his belt. And that belt? It’s a fifth- degree black belt in Togakure-ryu Ninjutsu… In this very book, his vampire character Lawson is FIXXING potatoes. Seriously. You don’t want to miss this… Jon is also in pre-production of a TV series based on this same series, though I do not believe potatoes will be involved. David Niall Wilson (@CrossroadPress) has written more than forty novels and collections. He’s won the Bram Stoker Award twice, been president of the Horror Writer’s Association hit the USA Today bestseller list and written for Star Trek, Stargate Atlantis, and White Wolf’s World of Darkness. He is the owner of Crossroad Press Publishing and is personally responsible for forcing perfectly talented authors to write about potatoes so that this book could exist.
