The Gaia Chime

"The Gaia Chime is a mind-bender of a cultural and global horror-thriller that will take you down twists and turns you will never see coming! Highly recommended!!"

-- Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of the Joe Ledger thrillers and NecroTek

"A chilling discourse on class, culture, and capitalism, underpinned with ancient myth, Johnny Worthen’s The Gaia Chime is a provocative and visionary near-future narrative, and an unsettling call to action. If you haven’t already put Worthen on your must-read list, you should rectify that now."

-- Lee Murray, five-time Bram Stoker Awards®-winning author of Grotesque: Monster Stories

"The Gaia Chime is a fascinating story with shocking twists. The vivid characters and dialogue that just sings makes reading the latest tale from Johnny Worthen an absolute pleasure. You're going to be delighted or terrified - possibly both."

"The Gaia Chime is ringing and calling out to a receptive generation. We know of many of the changes that have happened to our world, but now there is something more, something deeper, driving people to take up the fight. Johnny Worthen addresses the issues of the day by casting a dark reflection of what could be when the chime strikes."
