A single bite is the difference between paradise and hell.

"...an electrifying and vibrantly vivid tale of Wild West horror."
- The Haunted Reading Room


1839 hasn't been a good year for Micah Jenkins, and he hopes it won't end up carved on his tombstone. He and his family are entangled with a band of desperate pioneers, starving and lost on endless barren prairies, driven onward by a madman's visions. When the group stumbles into an unlikely oasis that promises food and comfort, have the oft-repeated prophesies come true or does this newfound Garden of Eden hold more than meets the eye?

A novella of horror on the western plains from author Evans Light (Doorbells at Dusk, Screamscapes: Tales of Terror, Bad Apples: Halloween Horrror).

4,0 su 5 stelle A Schlocky B-Horror Romp
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 18 settembre 2014
Acquisto verificato
This was fun. Goofy, yes. Silly? You betcha. But still loads of fun. Reminded me of something you'd find on ScyFy on Tuesday morning at 3am. You can't take it too seriously, and must accept it for what it is. Granted, I probably shouldn't have laughed as hard as I did during the "bone shower," but I have a dark sense of humor.

I just imagined the tree singing, "Toss-skeet-skeet-skeet..."

I do, however, want to know why Micah wasn't affected by eating the apple... Oh, never mind. I'm doing exactly what I shouldn't be doing with a story like this - over-thinking it.

In summation: A schlocky b-horror romp from Evans Light. Recommended if you like killer-plant tales. CRAWLSPACE, by leaps and bounds, is still my favorite from this author. Well-written, easy reading, fun times.

5,0 su 5 stelle Another superb short.
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 27 agosto 2014

A band of pioneers head west in 1839 moving to a new "promised land" that their zealot leader is convinced awaits them. At the edge of death from starvation the small wagon trail eventually reaches what seems to be a new Garden Of Eden. 2 unusually large apple trees in a lush garden complete with 2 empty houses and enough provisions to last a year.

Their leader is convinced it is a sign from God but young Micha is not so sure. Before he can learn to explain some weird happenings he is distracted by the charms of Anna. Their distractions mean they are ill prepared for the reawakening of a long dormant evil that will punish anyone that cannot resist the temptation.

I'm slowing coming to the conclusion that Evans Light is somewhat of a master at short stories. This is (in my opinion) a modern day twist on the story of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden. It's beautiful. The writing is almost poetic in its description of the surroundings, the characters and the plot. The tension and horror builds and builds to a climax that is both horrifying and unexpected. Another story that looks under the skin of the human being again and our faults.

5 stars again Mr Light.

Review of ArborEATum by Evans Light
5 stars

When I grow up I want to learn to write poetic description like Author Evans Light. This is an electrifying and vibrantly vivid tale of Wild West horror. Religiosity becomes psychosis on a long journey West across the plains, putting families in jeopardy, and crossing boundaries that should never have been crossed. Abuse of power is abuse no matter who wields that tool, and Lemuel--self-appointed "Messiah," propounder of religious visions--leads a small group of pioneers (his family plus his best friend's family) into what may be a literal new Garden of Eden--or it may be a nightmare beyond recall or escape.

The escalation of tension, so gentle and subtle, is exquisite. The readers keep pondering, "Is too good to be true, true, or a façade?" Scarcely two days into the "new Garden" everybody and everything begins to change; a wise person would probably "run for the hills," but it's unfortunately true that humans like to take the path of least resistance and usually manage to fall for a con, whether it's a manmade trap or one of preternatural design.

Now the question of horror: this is one terrifying book! By the time I had reached midpoint, I had developed permanent chills, not just up and down my spine, but all over. "ArborEATum" carries that implacable juggernaut style of horror that for me is the best horror there is--the utterly inescapable, back to the wall, no way out, give up and take it kind of horror. No escape--and the reasoning behind it, Mr. Light's particular spin on the mythology and religion: oh, my! I don't know how I am going to sleep tonight. I've always loved trees and wished to live surrounded by them, but now? Not so.

I reviewed a complimentary copy kindly provided by the author.

3,0 su 5 stelle Short and kind of predictable
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 6 novembre 2013

This story had such a great beginning, but quickly became rather predictable before even the halfway point. I am always a little curious about someone's interpretation of the Garden of Eden, but this book either went a step too far or not far enough. It wasn't really scary, and it wasn't really awful, but it wasn't really good either. I think with an eye to editing and some further plot development it could have been a pretty good book.

4,0 su 5 stelle An impressive novella
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 10 luglio 2016

Arboreatum is my first time reading Evans Light. I am very impressed. I really enjoyed this novella.
The story takes place in the 1800's and follows a group crossing the country for greener pastures. They find a valley with a couple fully furnished homes and think, what a perfect spot. The Lord has led us here. Yeah, that's probably too god to be true.
A great cast and a well-written tale make this a perfect little read.
Love where Light takes the horror in this story.

I definitely recommend this one.

I give Arboreatum 4 stars!
