severed_press_ — Sat, 27 Sep 2025 04:35:29 +0000

There’s only one way out of Hell – Fight your way out.

Drake Stoker, leader of the elite Reaper Special Forces, is trapped in the deepest depths of Hell—a nightmarish realm where monsters roam and the damned endure unspeakable horrors.

Each step unveils new terrors, forcing Drake to battle for his sanity and survival, desperate to see daylight again.

Meanwhile, on the surface, a Hell-born plague ravages towns, transforming people into grotesque creatures through an incurable parasitic mutagen unlike anything known.

Isabella Romano and her Vatican Knights scour ancient texts, seeking a way to save Drake and uncover a cure in a place that is deemed a myth – the legendary Garden of Eden itself.

In the gripping conclusion to Greig Beck’s Devils Peak duology, Hell’s monstrous abominations collide with a pulse-pounding finale that is as horrifying as it is unmissable.

The Devil’s Peak

The Lost Page Has Been Found.

Crafted 3,500 years ago, the first Bible concealed a dark secret—a missing page, torn from its sacred binding. Rumors claimed it wasn’t penned by a saint or prophet, but by the Devil himself, revealing the gateway to Hell.

In June 2020, a mysterious Middle Eastern earthquake unveiled this long-hidden page, unleashing global terrors: parasitic plagues, grotesque deformities, and monstrous entities rising from the ocean’s abyss—creatures never meant for daylight.

Drake Stoker, a skeptical ex-Reaper Special Forces operative, joins forces with the Templar Knights, a clandestine Vatican order. Driven by personal motives, Drake, alongside the Knights, must locate and seal this infernal portal before Hell spills over and the Devil walks free.

Devil’s Peak, a chilling masterpiece by horror maestro Greig Beck, plunges readers into the seven circles of Hell, redefining the phrase “the flesh is weak” with a terrifying new meaning.

The first mission to Europa—Jupiter’s enigmatic moon—has landed, and humanity’s darkest fears are about to awaken.

For years, mankind has speculated that this frozen world harbors a hidden ocean twice the size of all Earth’s oceans combined—an ocean potentially teeming with life.

Driven by this tantalizing mystery, they venture forth to unlock its secrets. But what they discover in the abyssal depths is far beyond anything they could have imagined.

Nearly four hundred million miles from Earth, their search for life has succeeded. But in their triumph, they overlook the most terrifying truth: what they have found is something far older and more horrifying than they ever could have conceived. Something has been trapped in the dark for eons—watching, and waiting, for them.

Now, the crew stands at the threshold of unimaginable terror, realizing too late that Hell, in its purest form, is cold.

severed_press_ — Mon, 09 Sep 2024 20:00:41 +0000

The world has been burned. The final mass extinction is nearly complete.

The dragon plague has scoured the land of living things, and Troyson Strom lives on his small boat, staying on the move, and gathering supplies when he can. But he has a plan – save enough provisions and sail back to the coast of Greenland and search for the mighty rift in the ice wall that leads through Odin’s Gate, and then on to Lemuria.

He will never stop, and never turn back, until he is reunited with Yrsa, the Viking queen, and his lost love.

But inside Lemuria, Yrsa and her clan faces their own threat, one that has emerged from beneath the ground in a dark wave that will consume every living thing on the island.

Yrsa has seen Troy’s return in a dream, but as clan leader she must leave to confront the dark horde, and quickly finds herself overwhelmed and trapped in darkness by a horrifying adversary that is intelligent and brutal, and she is forced to watch as her strongest warriors are spirited away one-by-one to be eaten alive.

Now, Troy must locate the entrance to Lemuria just using his skill, and blind luck. And Yrsa must stay alive long enough for him to find her.

In the gripping finale to the Mysterious Island series, Greig Beck creates a heart-stopping tale of courage, return and redemption, and with enough action and thrills to keep you reading long into the night.

Below the English town of Ipswich a tunnel boring team is digging through solid rock when unexpectedly, they break into an ancient cave system filled with animal bones.

And there was one more thing found: a huge, egg-shaped ruby that glowed like a setting sun. Just over 2000 miles away, still trapped on the lost island of Lemuria, Troy and Anne know that the time of monstrous beings long thought only existing in our legends or lurking in our nightmares, was returning. But they now have a chance of escape – they have found the fabled submarine, the Nautilus. Together, Troy, Anne, the secretive Elle, and the huge Viking woman, Yrsa, work together to break free so they can warn the world of the terror that is coming.

The legend of Lemuria, the Mysterious Island, and all its wonders and dangers were all too real. And it has been found.

On a desolate beach in far northern Scotland, the winter storms have been washing up all manner of things since time began. But buried in the center of one smaller iceberg is a shard of ancient Viking pottery telling a partial tale of a hidden mysterious island beyond the ice and mist, that was home to a great treasure and even greater horrors. Thawing in the same block of ice was a rotting flap of skin that refused to be identified but had similar skin patterns to a creature not seen for 100 million years. Now, Troy Strom and the enigmatic Elle Burgan race to find the mysterious island of legend, while staying ahead of a group of brutal killers who claim to be the rightful owners of the greatest prize of all – Odin’s heart. Bestselling author Greig Beck takes another Verne classic and adds his own blend of horror and action to make it a thrill ride in the tradition of Primordia and the Center Earth trilogies.

THE SIBERIAN INCIDENT

severed_press_ — Tue, 07 Jan 2020 19:57:29 +0000

100,000 years ago the object hit the lake at the deepest point, quickly sinking into its mile-deep stygian darkness. With it came something horrifying that would threaten every living thing on the face of the planet

Over the centuries, legends grew of people vanishing, of strange, deformed animals, and of an unexplained luminescence down in the lake depths.

When Marcus Stenson won the lucrative contract to create a sturgeon fish farm on the site of disused paper mill on the shore of Lake Baikal, he thought he had hit the jackpot. He refused to listen to the chilling folktales, or even be concerned by the occasional harassment from the local mafia. But then animals were found mutilated in the frozen forest, and people started to go missing. And worse, some came back, changed, horribly.

In the depths of the lake, something unearthly that had been waiting 100,000 years was stirring. And mankind will become nothing more than a host.

PRIMORDIA 3: THE LOST WORLD – RE-EVOLUTION

severed_press_ — Tue, 18 Dec 2018 09:12:46 +0000

“A small change today can change our tomorrow. A small change 100 million years ago can change everything.” No one really noticed when things started to change. Some animals vanished. Some new ones appeared. Then some things appeared that were monstrous. No one seemed to notice except Ben Cartwright and the other survivors of the hidden plateau in the depths of the Amazon Jungle. Only they were aware of the growing threat to the human race. While Andy Martin lived out his dreams by venturing north to witness the birth of the American continent and navigate a prehistoric inland sea of the Late Cretaceous, whatever he was doing was rippling forward to change our world. Every day brought new threats in the form of creatures that should have long been extinct, or newly evolved monstrosities that were from mankind’s worst nightmares. The comet, Primordia, was returning and time was up. They had to go back and find Andy and stop him before mankind vanished from the face of the Earth.

It was true – it was all true – and we were never meant to be there. In December 2018, Ben Cartwright, former Special Forces soldier, and a team of naive explorers, followed the clues left by his ancestor to a hidden plateau in the middle of the Amazon jungle. It was said that once every 10 years, a secret pathway was revealed to a world long since gone. They went, and what they found was a place of wonders and of horrors. Only Ben and his childhood love, Emma, survived. But when the doorway to the hidden world closed, Ben was trapped on the wrong side. Now, Emma has waited 10 long years for the doorway to open again. This time she’d be ready. This time she had everything she needed to go back to that hellish place and survive. All she needed was for Ben to be alive when she got there.

Ben Cartwright, former soldier, home to mourn the loss of his father stumbles upon cryptic letters from the past between the author, Arthur Conan Doyle and his great, great grandfather who vanished while exploring the Amazon jungle in 1908.

But other parties now know about the notebook, and will do anything to obtain it. For Ben and his friends, it becomes a race against time and against ruthless rivals. In the remotest corners of Venezuela, along winding river trails known only to lost tribes, and through near impenetrable jungle, Ben and his novice team find a forbidden place more terrifying and dangerous than anything they could ever have imagined.
