You have quite the appropriate username. I must warn you that if you're looking for "scary", you might be disappointed. However, because you asked, these are the titles that I can wholeheartedly recommend:

Bartleby the Scrivener by Herman Melville

Naked Lunch by William S Burroughs

Sanatorium under the sign of the Hourglass by Bruno Schulz

Oyasumi Punpun by Inio Asano (translation: "Goodnight Punpun." This one is actually a manga series. If you've never read manga before, check this one out. You won't be disappointed.)

Wieland by Charles Brockden Brown

Notes from Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky (I have a bit of a personal attachment to this one for reasons that may seem obvious)

Memoirs of my Nervous Illness by Daniel Paul Schreber (This one was recommended by one of my readers, and I'm very glad I added it to the rotation)

Dog Soldiers by Robert Stone

We are Legion by Dennis E. Taylor (a bit of science fiction fantasy that really makes you question the concept of identity)

The Masks of Time by Robert Silverberg

Tales of 1,001 Nights, author(s) unknown

A few other authors and stories I would recommend:
Philip K. Dick;
The Long Goodbye by Raymond Chandler;
Patricia Highsmith;
James Lee Burke;
Jorge Luis Borges;
William Gibson;
Dashiell Hammett;
Haruki Murakami;
Charles Baudelaire;
Ambros Bierce;
Nikolai Gogol;
Alberty Camus;
Nathaniel Hawthorne;
M R James;
H G Wells;
J G Ballard;
Thomas Ligotti;

That's about all I can think of right now, but I think it's a pretty good place to start.

So, what do you write? Do you know, there are author's writing novellas and selling kindle versions for $.99 on Amazon? It's awesome, and some of them are not bad at all.

Take Andrew Mayne, for example. He's basically writing adventure stories in the vein of Sherlock Holmes, and selling them for $1. About 90-100 pages each, it seems like a great medium for a budding writer. Beats the hell out of waiting months and months for a rejection letter from Asimovs or wherever else you're trying to send your writings.

It's the Company series by Kage Baker.

Start with The Garden of Iden.

u/quarteronababy · 2 pointsr/Blackfellas

in short. I'm a big fan of genre fiction. Fantasy, Sci-Fi, urban paranormal romance, all that jazz. Game of Thrones as I was reading it basically billed itself as this Fantasy Epic. Now I went into this before the show started.. the summer before so the buzz I had was just from book readers who regarded it as a beloved series. I read it and I kept waiting for the fantastic elements to appear. It opened with these special dire wolves after a preamble scene which hinted at a greater fantastic enemy to come. And the entire book just never delivered. I was four chapters past it and still expecting Sansa's wolf to show up and come back to life, because clearly those wolves were going to play an important part on the family's journey. Nah. I finished the book still in this "waiting" mindset.

After finishing I did something I don't often do. I said no. I'm a completionist. I try to finish the series I read. Notable exceptions include the Wheel of Time (simply because I don't want it to end.. it's that... BIG to me). And other series I've won on GoodReads but only have the first book and it's difficult to obtain the others for whatever reason. But Game of Thrones is maybe one of two book series that I've deliberately stopped reading. The other was just horrific. So bad it's made me afraid to try free Amazon books and I've had some of my best books have been from free Amazon.

u/AmaliaTd · 2 pointsr/Fantasy

it's contemporary/mythic/historical fantasy, not medieval, but two of my three protagonists (Adam and Eve) in the Fate of the Gods trilogy die every 100 years and have to start all over again in their next lives. Eve starts getting MIGHTILY sick of it, particularly after the events of book two, and Adam isn't thrilled either, for his own reasons. The third protagonist is Thor, and he's just normally immortal, but it weighs on him, too.

so it isn't the same as what you're looking for, but it might be similar enough to be interesting?

u/jhangel77 · 2 pointsr/suggestmeabook

Have you read Monique Martin's Out of Time series? IMO no one will be as awesome as DG is at weaving a story like Outlander, but this series is good. Out of Time is really more of a time travel romance with a paranormal complication , but I'd recommend it and see if you like it.

PS: Outlander is awesome and you have great taste. :-)

It reminds me of The Lord of The Sands of Time

u/SnowMantra · 2 pointsr/WritingPrompts

Btw, this reminds me of a book I read last year titled Unhappenings

The book was really good, and just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. :) It's about a guy that goes through his life living one day to the next and not knowing if things will just "unhappen." One example in the book is that he wrote a paper on quantum time theory, or something like that, and got really good praise for his work. The next day he came in to class and the professor reprimanded him and accused him of plagiarizing work that was published some years prior, like the professor wouldn't notice. I'm totally not doing this book justice in my explanation, but I don't want to give away any of the good stuff. At risk of giving away a major plot point, [Spoiler](/sp "the major constant in his 'unhappenings' is one woman, who seems to show up to fix things that go wrong. It's eventually learned that she's his daughter") ... ahhhh I can't say any more, just read it!

u/KristiiRexx · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I'M IN :D And I've already got ideas c: Gonna start on this c:

EDIT: I meant to edit this.. Not reply. ._.

  1. Something that is grey.
  2. Something reminiscent of rain. This is rain because when you drop a bunch of them, it has the soothing sound of gentle rain c: (Craft WL)
  3. Something food related that is unusual. How are pumpkin pudding flavored Kit Kats NOT unusual? (Food WL)
  4. Something on your list that is for someone other than yourself. Tell me who it's for and why. (Yes, pets count!) This would be for my dad!! I want to make him a cake for his birthday with this wonderful topper! He just loves golf. He goes about 3 times a week ._. (Baking Stuff WL)
  5. A book I should read! I am an avid reader, so take your best shot and tell me why I need to read it! I haven't read this yet. But.. we should read it at the same time. 'Cause I love talking about books with everyone c: AND. It's about a clash between men and women. A guy who's from a time where women are obedient and a women who's from a time where they go unquestioned and praised. Aaaaaaaaaand... FIGHT! (Books WL)
  6. An item that is less than a dollar, including shipping... that is not jewelry, nail polish, and or hair related!
  7. Something related to cats. I love cats! (keep this SFW, you know who you are...) Cateye glasses c: ORRRRRRR feathers because I've seen cats attacking birds or walking around with a feather in its mouth COUNTLESS times c: (Both from my Craft WL)
  8. Something that is not useful, but so beautiful you must have it. Shoe laces that don't tie aren't useful.. But shoe laces that don't tie AND LIGHT UP are beautiful c: And I would love to have them so my appearance at night will be FABULOUS. (Cutes! WL)
  9. A movie everyone should watch at least once in their life. Why?
  10. Something that would be useful when the zombies attack. Explain. You can make fake brains! It'll only be good enough to distract them for a moment, but that moment could be what saves you!!! (Baking Stuff WL)
  11. Something that would have a profound impact on your life and help you to achieve your current goals. This would allow me to easily carry a white board surface with me anywhere. I am a math tutor and an aspiring math professor, so being able to have a handy white board surface would be lovely. ORRRRRR this for a more playful goal. My friends and I seem to have the craziest conversations and strangest encounters while we're playing together. This would be a fun way to get our stuff recorded and FAMOUS. loljk. We just wanna share the insanity c: (white board from School Stuff WL and Elgato capture from Dreams WL)
  12. One of those pesky Add-On items. I just want mochi.. ;~; (Food WL)
  13. The most expensive thing on your list. Your dream item. Why? This is my current dream item. I'm attending college. My laptop is a dinosaur and it weighs a ton. It works fine, so I'm not looking to get rid of it. But I need something that won't break my already breaking back when I bring it to school. I spend a lot of time on campus doing homework or just relaxing. This Chromebook has a great battery life and is a good price for what I need to get done. (Dreams WL)
  14. Something bigger than a bread box. I'm going to assume this is bigger than a bread box because of the amount of candy in it.. (Food WL)
  15. Something smaller than a golf ball. Sugar pearls are smaller than golf balls c: (Baking Stuff WL)
  16. Something that smells wonderful. It may be too strong by itself.. But add it into some yummies and it'll smell DELICIOUS. c: (Baking Stuff WL)
  17. A (SFW) toy. It's SFW as long as you aren't screaming, "FUCK" or bludgeoning a person to death with it out of frustration c: (Cubes WL)
  18. Something that would be helpful for going back to school. I'm a math major and the majority of my math is done on white boards I have mounted in my room. There is no such thing as too many expo markers for me lol (School Stuff WL)
  19. Something related to your current obsession, whatever that may be. Chain maille jewelry! :D I've only started with it :c (Crafts WL)
  20. Something that is just so amazing and awe-inspiring that I simply must see it. Explain why it is so grand. It's a 3D DINOSAUR COOKIE CUTTER. You can make dinosaur cookies!!! THAT STAND. YOU CAN MAKE STOP MOTION DINO WARS. I are excite. (Baking Stuff WL)

    I'll come back with the three I missed c:

    Edit#2: Adding raffle phrase! fear cuts deeper than swords

    Also adding one of the bonuses! Purdy paintbrushes are made in Oregon c: They've been made in Portland since 1925! c:

It's a newer release but certainly worth a look if you like Outlander - Shadow of the Savernake by Jane Hackett - http://amzn.to/2zAjSmF

I actually prefered it to Ourlander (although Outlander was great too!)
