Today in a series of replies to FAQ (frequently asked questions) sent to me by fans (and sometimes not so much), I answer the question “What’s So Scary About “Panic!” Anyway?“, asked by Fran.
This is a question one of my readers asked me recently, and one that I really don’t mind answering! (Fran, I hope you don’t mind! š I’m not picking on you, I promise!) Anyway, ‘what’s so scary about “Panic!“?’Ā By that I mean, naturally – my series “Panic! Horror In Space“!
Well, for starters, “Panic!” is a horror series set in space – and space is dark and dangerous, and well, scary! Now, hang on a moment – I know that sounds a little silly if not actually vague – but it’s true! Of course, being set in space is only a tiny part of the whole thing – but a setting can make or break a story – and I think you’d have to go a long way to beat space for its inherent scare factor!
Think about it: A billion things could go wrong out there, and each of them might kill you if they had the chance – radiation, vacuum, micro-meteorites, temperature extremes, asteroids, black holes – equipment failure – and even, as in “Panic!” – the paranormal.
The para-what?

A Glowing Review Of Panic! Horror In Space!
Good morning! š
The Panic! Horror In Space series has received a glowing review from Lee Hall, and I thought I’d share this high note and honor with you!
This is an excerpt of his article “Spooky Season Book Recommendations 2” – you can read the entire thing by clicking on the link.
“Iāve mentioned before that I enjoy space science fiction quite a lot and my go-to author of that genre is Christina Engela who once again provides another awesome series but this one contains some chilling but fun spills that begins with āStaticā. The āPanic! Horror in Spaceā series is well worth a look for some awesome Halloween spooky goodness.” – Lee Hall, UK writer & reviewer in “Spooky Season Book Recommendations 2“, Oct 26 2020.
There are 3 titles so far in this series, and incidentally, you can find all of them in all the usual places! A virtual (eBook) box set is also available here.
You can also read more about the series here.
Happy reading!
