io9 talked to Niles and has covers and pages to share, featuring art by Niles' frequent collaborator Damien Worm and others.
Here’s the plot description forthe recently divorced and newly sober Mark Turner returns to his hometown of Turner Island hoping to rebuild his shattered life and rekindle a relationship with his estranged daughter, Sophie.
Cheryl Eddy, io9: Mark Turner is a man with a dark past, returning to an island with an even darker past. What is it about this combination that makes it such a potent jumping-off point forI don’t like to get too mired down in backstory but hopefully add just enough to let the reader know where we are and who we are meeting. Mark has demons, and he’s trying to start over, which is the perfect setup for horror.
io9: Was there any specific inspiration for Mark’s backstory, and for using a place like Turner Island as a setting?The history of the U.S. East Coast barrier islands is really fascinating. There are all kinds of strange tales, lost colonies, hard weather shipwrecks, you name it. Originally, I was thinking of using one of the actual islands but as I was working on my story, it seemed like a fun idea to just create a fictional one.
io9: You’ve worked with artist Damien Worm several times. What is it about your sensibilities and personalities that makes you such a good team, and has your style of collaboration changed much over the years?Damien is one of the coolest artists, and he’s so fun and easy to work with. He has great ideas and such a fantastic style; I really love working with him. Since we started, he’s moved from relying less on computer graphics and really gotten into drawing everything first.
io9: The horror genre—across movies, TV, books, comics, video games, and beyond—has never been more popular than it is now. Why do you think that is, and how have you seen horror’s relationship with pop culture evolve? What horror works have you read, watched, or otherwise encountered lately that’ve made you especially excited for the future of the genre?We all need to escape, and horror can really be exciting and fun to watch when the real world is a little too much to deal with.
