Why do we say new attack on Hugh? Because back in April, Hugh was attacked by a throng of bully reviewers for something he wrote about on his blog. This time, he is being targeted by the same troll who was banned from Goodreads and who attacked Melissa Foster on his blog called ZoneAlert, claiming that she bought reviews to boost her sales. Now, the same thing is being said of Hugh:
We want all of our readers to know that this is FALSE INFORMATION. The person who writes this blog makes outrageous claims against very successful authors and provides absolutely no evidence to validate them. We want to warn our readers about this person and let everyone know that he is a fraud. Please pass the word on.
*************************************************
Addendum
We now know that the person who is behind this fraudulent website is an author who was kicked off of Goodreads for faking reviews. He is a failed author who is taking his revenge out on other authors who are more successful than he is. We learned this information from the authors who were targeted.
Here is a screenshot of Hugh and his thoughts on this fraudulent website:

Psst! Angela!
That Thuderpoozy, she’s getting to be a real pain in the butt, isn’t she? Soon you won’t have any friends left! That’s what she wants!!!
There’s been some discussion on Kboards regarding the company’s response to the website.
Wow, this site again. Here is a link to the KBoards discussion when the site first went after a bunch of innocent authors, including Hugh: http://www.kboards.com/index.php/topic,162910.0.html
Weeeeeeellll…. someone is totally obsessed with me, isn’t she????? But honestly, Horny Mama, I am sooooo honored that you devoted a whole page of your tired old blog witch nobody reads to ss’s of every post I’ve ever made!!!!! But you STILL haven’t guessed who I am! I know that’s driving you crazy!!!!!!! You think you do, but you always guess that person when you don’t have a clue, don’t you? You should ask Old French Whore for help, she’s a sharp one! Oh wait…your not talking to her anymore, are you ?? >:)
As if Hugh Howey would have to pay for reviews. He is amazing author, who has a huge following, every one of his reviews are genuine.
Whoever wrote that blog is a nut, they probably have a personal grudge against Mr Howey. The blog doesn’t show one shred of evidence that Mr Howey has paid for one single review. Its just ridiculous, pure ridiculous.
No wonder the blogger is ashamed to put his name to his blog. Hugh Howey is an outstanding author, the person who wrote that blog post is just another troll.
Agreed, Anon.
A jealous troll.
