"Crybaby" by Mark Watson is a heart-pounding thriller that grips you from the first page and doesn't let go until long after you've closed the book.

The author's skillful storytelling paints vivid images of the elephant's imposing presence, turning it into a symbol of both majesty and menace.

The tension is palpable as Crybaby's interactions with humans oscillate between moments of eerie calm and sudden violence.

The author creates a claustrophobic atmosphere as the characters navigate the dense jungle and crumbling colonial ruins, mirroring the tension of being stranded at sea in "Jaws."

Each encounter with Crybaby is a nerve-wracking experience, and the sense of impending doom is ever-present.

Reading "Crybaby" is akin to watching "Jaws" for the first time—it's an adrenaline rush that leaves you breathless.

"Crybaby" will do for elephant rides what "Jaws" did for swimming in the sea. It is a gripping, terrifying read that will linger in your mind long after the final page.

The novel's ability to transform an otherwise gentle creature into a source of dread is reminiscent of the fear elicited by "Jaws." For those seeking a thrilling, edge-of-your-seat experience, "Crybaby" is an absolute must-read…

Oh dear, I just had time to read through your specs for submissions and find that I do not qualify. My books are published, not on Substack. I will, however, add you to my weekly post Connecting Readers to Writers. Great way for others to get seen. Best wishes!

You can still submit your book. 😊 They have a Buy Indie section for published work outside of substack. You send in the same details as you would for a work published on substack and then include a product link to Amazon or elsewhere at the end.
