# You Want to Live Forever? Are You Sure? Horror Novels by Johnny Compton and Nick Cutter

A sage man once asked us: “Who wants to live forever?” Horror writers Johnny Compton and Nick Cutter would probably respond: “absolutely nobody.” In Compton’s “Dead First,” private detective Shyla Sinclair investigates a billionaire who cannot die. Cutter’s “The Dorians” follows five elderly volunteers who are given a too-good-to-be-true opportunity to reverse their biological clocks through an experimental treatment. Moderated by Jack LaRoche.
