Undaunted by detention, he's continued to pursue writing ever since. Holt supported himself as a hotel night clerk and a handbag salesman before becoming a full-time novelist. A comic book collector and amateur musician, he makes his home in Chicago.","products":[{"product_id":"the-devouring-paperback-1","title":"The Devouring - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Reggie finds an old journal and reads about the Vours, supernatural creatures who feast on fear and attack on the eve of the winter solstice, she assumes they are just the musings of some lunatic author.
