"A pleasant New Year's Eve outing becomes an experience in otherworldly
horror when two close-knit couples discover a shocking secret in the darkest
corners of the Appalachian mountains. At an opulent mountain inn, Warren
Burr, his fiancee, Anne, and their friends, Roger and Kristin Leverman,
encounter a religious zealot named John Hanger, who makes it his business to
bear witness to them of his peculiar... and disturbing... faith. His efforts
rebuffed, Hanger insidiously assumes control of the couples' technological
devices, leading them to stumble into unexpected, surreal
landscapes... landscapes inhabited by nightmarish beings that defy
explanation and rationality. To return to the world they thought they knew,
Warren and his friends must not only escape the deadly entities that pursue
them but somehow stop John Hanger's nightmare-plague from spreading to the
outside world."

"After devouring The Gods of Moab in one short sitting, this novella
has not only become my favorite work by the author, it has become one of
my favorite reads of the year. Rainey balances his supernatural frights with
the natural, and it works beautifully. From the first page to its mind-bending
final sentences, The Gods of Moab will have readers wide-eyed and
enthralled." —TTZuma, HorrorWorld
