Hello all and welcome to my website which focuses on my books, musings and writings.  From this page you should be able to access most of the items on the site as well as gain an Idea of what I am working on at the moment. You can view and purchase my past works and see what the future may hold. I have also included a few short stories, out-takes and thoughts should you wish to read them. There are also links to other stuff if you are interested. My name is Raymond Walker and I am an author. Books, short stories, Novellas and even some rather bad poetry has passed from my pen to paper over the years and I formed this site to tell you of it.
I hope that you consider it worth a look.
Like any author, good bad or indifferent I wish to sell my books and so I will be advertising whatever my next book is on this page. I hope to update it every time a new book is on the horizon.

 Over The Tears of the Fallen.

 "Over The Tears of the fallen" was released on September 2nd this year (2018) 
Under the Atlantic ocean a presence stirs, an old god returns to a semblance of life, it grows, takes form and seeks to be worshiped once more. Three friends, unknowingly in cahoots with other sea gods and provided with an army of dead fishermen try to thwart this possible domination of the seas. The friends, set out to destroy this old god and send it back to the depths from where it came but they have a traitor in their midst, a collaborator and the army of old dead fishermen may not be all they wish them to be. 
A dark thriller from Raymond Walker the author of "She Wept Black Tears" and "The Secret Inside".
 
 
Dark and brooding  "The Tears of the fallen" grips the reader from the outset and propels us through storm tossed seas, fishermen lost to the waves, a strange presence in the deeps to a group of friends trying to find out what is going on. The first volume in a Horror trilogy that you will enjoy immensely, the only bad thing being that we have to wait for the next volume.

A paradise for the horror reader. I have remarked before that I believe Raymond Walker to be the latest in a long line of great "Horror" writers. There are echoes of Clive Barker, Stephen King, Lovecraft and Robert E Howard in his works but each remains, uniquely, his own. I suspect that this may be the series that propels him to international stardom. It was always going to happen.

Book Reviews

I am and have always been a reader of books, Now I also write them and many have told me that the reviews that I post here and there of other peoples books give them insight into wither they would like to read them. So I decided to do this blog that will simply post book reviews.

Handling the Undead; By John Ajvide Lindqvist.

I am sure that you can tell from the last few reviews posted here that I have become a fan of Mr Lindqvist and upon reading this novel, no wonder.

This is an excellent take on the rather tired and overdone zombie industry. There are no rushing Zombie’s imbued with tremendous powers rushing around gobbling people up (28 days later) nor are there Romeroesque unsteady, staggering, rotting but unstoppable Zombie’s.

Mr Lindqvist has (again) changed the whole genre with style and with human understanding. He has even re-branded them from Zombies, The Walking Dead, or the undead to the re-living. Where they are loved ones that have come back to life. This is a rather beautiful tale, well told, as always, that even gives insight into our reactions to those that different from us or are unusual.

Things or people that we do not understand. In Sweden the reliving are viewed much as an autistic person maybe, different, but they have every right to life, or undeath, as every other person has. 

Yet I must say that what this novel makes up for in originality and quality is let down, only very slightly, by the usual excellence of his storytelling, imagery and wonderful descriptiveness. I thought the story as good or better than Harbor or Little Star but the telling not quite as good. None the less this is a terrific novel and a thoroughly enjoyable read  that I would recommend to everyone and anyone, not just lovers of the horror genre.

Four Stars out of five from me.
