<p><b>'Fiendishly clever and monstrously funny, C K McDonnell's latest will steal your soul and eat your brain. In the nicest possible way, of course.' </b>TOM HOLT, author of <i>The Portable Door </i>and <i>The Eight Reindeers of Christmas</i></p><p><b>It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas . . . </b></p><p>For most people, that means a time of celebration, relaxation and inebriation, but not for the staff of <i>The Stranger Times.</i> While a book club meeting ending in a triple murder isn't unprecedented, it is at least noteworthy. It quickly emerges that this is no ordinary book-club-triple-murder either, as it features a librarian possessed by a chaotic entity who has broken through from another dimension and is hellbent on vengeance. He's made a list, but he's not checking it twice as the whole of humanity is on it. Who would want to summon such a thing? And how is anyone going to be able to send it back?</p><p>As if that wasn't enough to be dealing with, a shocking revelation about a member of <i>The Stranger Times</i> team's past brings family together, but not in a way that's ever going to make it into a Hallmark movie.</p><p>Featuring demonically possessed Santas, blood-thirsty books and the ghost of a legendary nightclub, it's beginning to look a lot like a Christmas apocalypse . . .</p><p><i>Ring the Bells </i>is the fifth book in the award-winning, critically acclaimed and laugh-out-loud funny <i>The Stranger Times </i>series.</p><p>The reviewers loved <i>Relight My Fire: </i></p><p>'McDonnell's world is <b>transgressively hilarious, grimly banal and beguilingly warm. </b>Of course there's a story that the intrepid journalists of <i>The Stranger Times</i> have to tease out: grave-robbing, cryogenics, a very angry witch, and a washed-up indie legend looking for a lost album, but <b>the real joy lies in the pitfalls and pratfalls of getting there</b>.' <i>DAILY MAIL</i></p><p>'<b>An absolute riot</b> of a read.' <i>DAILY EXPRESS</i></p><p>'Laugh-out
