Feed the Sky by Wesley WInters

Brothers Justin and Tommy plan a camping trip into the mountains of Tennessee with several of their friends, including a girl that used to follow them around when she was younger. For years, Mary has harbored a crush on Justin, the eldest of the brothers and the obvious protector of their group. Seeing as Justin is single and she's now an adult, Mary hopes to catch his eye during their weekend trip.

Once they've found a spot in the mountains to set up camp and gather supplies, the friends begin eating mushrooms and hallucinating in the forest. Some go off to fool around under a sky full of excited eyes and bursting colors. Others hang back to seduce one another and fall in love. But all will see the terrors that await them in the night.

Nearby, a covenant has been preparing for the White Ritual, a night that concludes in a great offering to the Eye of Eyes. But first, they must locate the girl from their prophecies, a girl that can disrupt their night of ascendance to power. Luckily for them, the Crimson Highness has the power to awaken mighty beasts and perform dark spells that will soon splatter the trees in red.

Feed the Sky is the first entry in a cosmic horror trilogy called The Fucked, overflowing with blood. It exists in the universe of the larger series, The Cosmic Devourer of Life, which also includes a forthcoming prequel series about the Crimson Highness.

EARLY PRAISE FOR FEED THE SKY

“Imagine waking up during the witching hour in the ‘80s and finding a raunchy horror movie on the TV. For a while you’re not entirely convinced it’s not a snuff video, or a psychedelic nightmare. You feel filthy and reach for the remote to switch it off. But your morbid curiosity forces you to keep going. Feed the Sky is that movie.”
~ Robert Weaver, author of Blessed Skeletons and Five Suns Over Somerset

“Feed the Sky is dark and grisly and cosmic in its horror ... and it's also a hell of a lot of fun from start to finish!"
~ Mark Allan Gunnells, author of Lucid and When it Rains

“Vile, disturbing, horrifying and down-right traumatizing. Clearly the work of a depraved individual. It’s fucked and I loved it.”
~ Horror Oasis

“Add a dash of Cabin in the Woods, a sprinkle of Clive Barker, and a little Edward Lee for good measure, and you get the barest glimpse of what to expect in Feed the Sky. Wesley Winters’ extreme horror novella will leave even the most seasoned horror reader trembling at the prospect of what waits in the woods.”
~ Brennan LaFaro, author of I Will Always Find You and Noose

“…truly fucked...very out of control and unpredictable…”
~ Kristina Osborn, Truborn Press

“A brutal and bloody backwoods bacchanal…”
~ Christopher Robertson, author of The Cotton Candy Massacre

“…a visceral, mind-bending journey…[Winters] cranks the weirdness up to eleven, crafting an unsettling atmosphere that feels as alive as its haunted forests…the narrative twists through layers of cosmic horror, cult rituals, and trippy, character-driven arcs…the imagery is a standout…Winters’ characters are raw and real, navigating guilt, desire, and survival instincts in increasingly surreal situations. The chaotic dynamics within the group camping trip—particularly the messy blend of humor and dread—help ground the escalating madness…[Winters] pushes the boundaries of conventional horror to deliver a wholly unique experience—one that shocks, mesmerizes, and haunts. The vivid prose and daring storytelling demand your attention and trust, rewarding readers with an unforgettable descent into a universe where even the sky hungers.”
~ Miguel Gonçalves, author of The Scarecrow Man and School’s Night Out

“…get ready for a lot of blood, bonking, and bodies galore…”
~ Luc Dantes, book reviewer
