Arrow In The Head at JoBlo.com on my new book series, THE MEN WHO WALK LIKE WOLVES.

Wednesday, February 15th, 2017

“Eric Red has a lot of great film credits to his name (THE HITCHER, NEAR DARK, BLUE STEEL, BODY PARTS, BAD MOON, 100 FEET, the list goes on), and he is also an author, having written about such nightmarish topics as a serial killer truck driver (in WHITE KNUCKLE) and an aquatic alien terrorizing a submarine (IT WAITS BELOW). Red is also responsible for the extremely cool “The Men Who Walk Like Wolves” dark fantasy series, which is about werewolves rampaging through the Old West.

Short, Scary Tales Publications will soon be publishing a signed and lined trade hardcover edition and a trade paperback edition of the first two books in the Wolves series, and these can now be pre-ordered directly from the publisher.

The first book in the series is titled THE GUNS OF SANTA SANGRE, and these new editions of it will be published in March. The synopsis:

“They’re hired guns. The best at what they do. They’ve left bodies in their wake across the West. But this job is different. It’ll take all their skill and courage. And very special bullets. Because their targets this time won’t be shooting back. They’ll fight back with ripping claws, tearing fangs and animal cunning. They’re werewolves. A pack of bloodthirsty wolfmen have taken over a small Mexican village, and the gunmen are the villagers’ last hope. The light of the full moon will reveal the deadliest showdown the West has ever seen—three men with six-shooters facing off against snarling, inhuman monsters.”

The second book in the series, THE WOLVES OF EL DIABLO, will be published just five months later, in August.

“In THE GUNS OF SANTA SANGRE, three 1800s gunfighters battled a ferocious pack of werewolves in Old Mexico. In the sequel, THE WOLVES OF EL DIABLO, the three outlaws rob a Federale steam train in the badlands of El Diablo transporting a fortune in silver bars. But when a savage werewoman, hungry for revenge on the men who killed her brother, leads her bloodthirsty gang of wolfmen in an attack on the train, the outlaws find themselves trapped on a highballing railroad in the middle of the desert fighting fifty werewolves.

This time it’s bigger action, more lycanthropes, more silver bullets, and much more Werewolf Western thrills!”

Only the first 150 copies of the trade hardcover editions will be signed and lined by Red, so if you want those copies you should head over to SST Publications and get your pre-order in now.

“Rookie FBI Special Agent Sharon Ormsby works as an analyst for the Bureau when she discovers evidence of a prolific interstate truck driver serial killer who has been on the road for forty years and killed over five hundred victims. His CB handle is White Knuckle and he is Jack The Ripper on eighteen wheels. Sharon is assigned to go undercover as a truck driver trainee with a helpful long hauler named Rudy to hunt White Knuckle down. With two million big rigs on the U.S. highway system, tracking down the killer is as impossible as finding a needle in a haystack. She wrestles with her own inexperience and doubts, under pressure to prove herself as an FBI agent. When the young agent gets on the serial killer’s trail, the chase escalates into a deadly game of cat and mouse in a cross-country pursuit that ultimately brings SA Sharon Ormsby face-to-face with White Knuckle in a pedal-to-the-metal, high-octane climax on a highway to Hell.”
