United StatesExcellent story!
Fascinated by this story. A cult story based on Judaism with a bit of a cosmic horror feel to it. I loved how the story built up and the ending was perfect. I imagine Josh joining Ze'ev in his fight and I hope the author takes this story in the direction. Now, off to read the books of Ze'ev!
Shplatterpunk !
Splatterpunk with a Jewish twist. Fast-paced, exceedingly graphic violence and body-horror gore, down in the unholy cavers underneath the Hillel House at UT in Austin. Even when the genre is not my cup of tea, I enjoyed the action, the writing, and the Jewish references. It reminded me a bit of Ed Erdelac's Merkabah Rider series -but turned to 11. Fun stuff!
Chaos In A College Town!
The Hillels Have Eyes is a story from Baltisbergerβs Book of Zeβev series. I was excited to see that in the title to be able to find out another piece of that characterβs story! Josh and Alan are two Jewish college kids from a small town who have just arrived in Austin to go to school at UT. Alan, the ever popular jock is aching to go in this new city to explore, while Josh is a bit more reserved and cautious about the big city. The local Jewish organization offers some fellowship and assistance that Alan thinks they need. Chaos is just around the corner, bubbling up to the surface looking to cause mischief. This was an entertaining story that I read very quickly. Baltisberger did his magic captivating me from the beginning and keeping me hooked throughout the story! This one gets messy in grand fashion for sure! Zeβevβs appearance was perfect! Come read about the small town boys and their adventure in the weird city of Austin!
United StatesThe Moses of Jewish Horror Parts the Red Sea Again
In his latest contribution, THE HILLELS HAVE EYES, John Baltisbergerβthe βMoses of Jewish horrorββfearlessly and lovingly explores one of the worldβs oldest cultures in this quick, fun, slightly disturbing read.
United StatesFull of Madness!
Josh and Alan were accepted into the prestigious UT. Alan seemed to blend in rather well, but Josh always seemed uncomfortable. Itβs like he sensed something was off at the campus. Joshβs feelings must have been right because things take an unexpected turn and as more details come out things quickly deteriorate. Freshmen orientation may have started off okay, but it didnβt take long for that to change. Alan ends up pulling Josh into a dark ritual full of torture that was rather mind blowing. Baltisberger doesnβt leave much to the imagination as he gives the reader a front row seat to the madness. If enjoy fast paced reads with some blood and gore give this one a go.
