About Me

I write novels, short stories and screenplays in the genres of urban fantasy, dark fantasy, horror, and crime/suspense.My new novel, EVIL WAYS, was released in North America on December 30 (a week later in the UK and Oz). Quincey and Libby don't really have a lot to do in this one -- just save the world, prevent the Apocalypse, stuff like that. A chapter can be found posted at:http://www.bookspotcentral.com/2008/12/evil-ways-justin-g ustainis-excerpt/EVIL WAYS is the second in the "Quincey Morris Supernatural Investigations" series In the first book, occult investigator Quincey Morris (descended from a character in the original DRACULA), along with his partner, "white" witch Libby Chastain, must free a family from a deadly curse that dates back to the Salem witch trials. It was released in trade paper last January, and in mass market paperback this past November.The third book in the series, SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL, will be pubished late in 2009. Quincey and Libby discover that a major party's Presidential candidate has been secretly possessed by a demon! That book, I should point out, is a work of fiction, and any resemblance to Presidential candidates (or even Vice Presidential ones) living or dead is purely coincidental and unintended.That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

My Interests
