Erick stared at the book in his hand. The book had a cover made out of the hide of some unknown beast. The pages were clearly made by human skin. The ink used looked like blood, in fact Erick was sure that the author had really used blood.
'Pretty gory, but a good way to increase the interest of your readers. If I was a writer I am sure it would sell if I could write the book with blood. And if I died writing, it would become the bestseller,' Erick lampooned.
The pages felt thick but lacked smell or an eerie feel to them. It might be also because Erick had skinned quite a few people in his past life so he had a warped sense of normal and abnormal.
