A Face Without a Heart

<hr3><b>(Special Hardcover Edition)<b><hr3/><br> <p>A modern-day version of Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray<b>. Rick R. Reed, author of the critically acclaimed novels Obsessed and Penance, delivers a stunning retake on the timeless themes of guilt, decadence, and despair in Oscar Wilde's fin de siecle classic. Amidst a gritty background of urban nihilism, a young man bargains his soul away, while his painfully beautiful holographic portrait mirrors his each and every sin, each nightmarish step into depravity...even cold blooded murder. Writing in FANGORIA magazine, Thomas Deja said, "“Reed is able to produce a book that is brutally honest with its reader and doesn't flinch in the areas where Wilde had to look away…A rarity: a really well-done update that's as good as its source material.”<p>
