Book Description
A GRIEVING SHE-APE whose son was murdered by an ambitious alpha male, mistakes Dracula’s regenerating body for a newborn of her species, so she names the foundling “Gazda” and takes him to her tribe to raise as her own. With only a “child’s mind” and no memory of his true identity, the unusual orphan uses his budding abilities to survive in the jungle and grow from social outcast to trusted member of the tribe. As Gazda matures into a peerless hunter, he wins friends and enemies among the bull apes who compete for dominance; and while his differences raise questions about his origins, the call of the wild overpowers their doubts. Dracula of the Apes picks up where Bram Stoker’s Dracula left off and Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Tarzan of the Apes began. Genres collide in this thrilling horror/adventure fiction hybrid.

Dracula's America: Shadows of the West: Forbidden Power
Author: Jonathan Haythornthwaite
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472826590
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
Since Dracula's rise to power a shadow has swept across the nation, but nowhere is it darker than in the Deep South. Throughout the plantations, swamps, and cities, rumours abound of grotesque rituals, hooded figures, and bizarre creatures. Most terrifying of all, however, are the whispers of ancient magic – unspeakable arcane rituals and occult powers that can lead those who wield them towards mystical supremacy... or reduce them to gibbering wrecks. This new supplement for Dracula's America: Shadows of the West introduces two new factions: the corrupt cultists of the Church of Dagon and the Salem Sisterhood, occult practitioners whose history dates back to the early Colonies. New stealth rules allow for all manner of sneaky and underhanded tactics, while expanded rules for arcane powers offer glory but could cost you your sanity. Alongside these are a host of new scenarios, Hired Guns, monsters, skills, and gear to challenge or assist those who dare venture into the Deep South of Dracula's America.

The Night Once More - A Wildclown Novel
Author: G. Wells Taylor
Publisher: G. Wells Taylor
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
A WANDERER on the road keeps losing track of time ... and place. His only clues to who he is come from the many fatal wounds on his body and the recurring nightmares of a doomsday cop, a gunslinging clown and a maniac on a mission from God. Are they echoes from his past life, or is he haunted by something that followed him back from the grave? The living dead walk the road with him, feral beasts trail behind and it’s been raining nonstop for days; but those mysteries, like the circumstances surrounding his own death, can wait ... For now, he believes that a life can be saved if he can just remember his name. THE NIGHT ONCE MORE returns to the World of Change where people stopped aging, the dead rose from their graves, it started raining and it’s been raining ever since. But a guy’s got to make a living, doesn’t he? THE NIGHT ONCE MORE takes the reader to a unique setting that mixes Gothic horror with the two-fisted pragmatism of a hard-boiled detective novel.

The Variant Effect: BLOOD ANGEL
Author: G. Wells Taylor
Publisher: G. Wells Taylor
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 31
Book Description
BACK IN THE DAY ... People didn’t know that it was happening, so it was totally out of control by the time authorities understood that something serious was going on. As a result, the worst of it incubated in the shadows, hidden behind closed doors and far from view, where the true horror played out in isolation. Where no one could hear you scream. The Variant Effect was impossible to detect until you were already infected. There was no way to tell if it was near, if it was cooking in you, or if it had passed you by altogether. First responders were the first to document evidence of its existence, the first to see it happening, and often the first to feel it boiling in their blood. Stress set it off and fear fed it, so it was a perfect fit for cops, firemen, and EMTs. But in the beginning all they could do was file incident reports and wonder. Here is a short story from early in the day.

Pages : 401
Book Description
A DARK-HAIRED beauty comes calling with news of a compound being built south of Greasetown where neo-Nazis are setting up shop. They claim to be turning over a new leaf, but she knows different and wants Wildclown to join the band of mercenaries she's hired to stop the cancerous cult before it spreads. The detective almost accepts the damsel's desperate mission, but doesn't trust the righteous passion in her eyes. Wildclown hasn't been back on the job long enough to take any leaps of faith that might risk alienating his partner Elmo. And he sure doesn’t want to get him killed again. Business is business, after all, and pretty green eyes were a dime a dozen for a detective agency that needed every dollar. When the woman politely accepts the detective’s refusal, it leaves him feeling worse, and doubting his abilities that have yet to be fully tested since his return. So, when Wildclown later learns the bad news about her mission, his guilty conscience goes into high gear, and an investigation leads him to an ancient evil that refuses to believe he isn't on the case. RETURN TO THE WORLD OF CHANGE in DAMNED WITH THE DEVIL sixth book in The Wildclown Mysteries and sequel to THE NIGHT ONCE MORE.
