Bring Out Your Dead Kindle Edition

5.0 out of 5 stars 3 ratings

Owen Steinbeck was an awkward thirteen-year-old girl with ghostly backup...What could go wrong?
I know some of you love reading short novellas. Here you go my awesome Children of Ankh series readers! Middle-Grade Novella number one. The novella itself is only 60 pages long. I've added a teaser to the first book in the main series, 'Sweet Sleep.'
Happy Reading XO
Kim Cormack

Owen awoke to the sound of Darth Vader's rhythmic heavy breathing. A very cool birthday gift or so she’d thought at the time. It had easily taken her half of the night to fall asleep and it felt like only five minutes had elapsed since she’d managed to tune out the droning voices in her head and closed her eyes. No, no, no…I don’t want to get up. Owen misjudged her swing for the snooze button and yanked on the cord. Darth landed right on her face. It hurt like hell. She covered her eye as she wandered over to look at the damage in the mirror. That was going to leave a mark. When your morning starts with a black eye from Darth Vader, you just know the Sith is going to hit the fan. This day was going to suck.

About the Author

Kim Cormack is the always comedic author of the darkly twisted epic paranormal romance series, The Children of Ankh. She worked for over 16 years as an Early Childhood educator in preschool, daycare, and as an aid. She has M.S and has lived most of her life on Vancouver Island in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. She currently lives in the gorgeous little town of Port Alberni. She's a single mom with two awesome kids. She has a son who just finished grade 8 and a daughter in University at VIU. If you see her back away slowly and toss packages of hot sauce at her until you escape. A personal note from the author... I began writing this series shortly after my M.S diagnosis. I had many reasons to fight. I had incredible children, a wonderful family, and amazing friends but this series gave me a purpose. Whenever things become dark, I use my imagination to find the light within myself. No matter what life throws your way, you are stronger than you believe. My hope is that the character's strength becomes an inner voice for the readers that need it. Stand back up and if you can't stand... Rise up within yourself. We are all beautiful just as we are. We are all immortal. All heroes are born from the embers that linger after the fire of great tragedy... She slept a dreamless sleep free of dragons for she had slain them once again...

    Bring Out Your Dead, by Kim Cormack is a novella introducing her series, The Children of Ankh. For me, the story is also an introduction to a very creative writer. I can say that I read with curiosity about her 13 year old protagonist, who is followed by the dead. What they want is for her to acknowledge them. Owen Steinbeck knows that the dead will do what she asks of them, and also that even a mean thought can be catastrophic. Which poses a problem for a girl who is constantly bullied. The author has created a world where the reader must decide if the dead are real, ghosts, zombies, dreams or the illusions of a lost mind. I admit to not being sure. It's short enough to read a few times to see if you can figure it out. I don't believe the ending is more than an illusion. Fun read. I received a copy as a gift from another writer. Glad I did.
