Come and Watch a Man Die!

By Kyle B. Stiff

They paid millions of dollars to take part in a ritual of human sacrifice.

They are a nameless brotherhood, a collective of bankers, military men, and corporate executives whose endless hunger has been the driving force behind every atrocity ever committed. Tonight, they are going to cook a world-famous chef in an electric chair on live television.

Sigmund plans to make a great deal of money from this execution. So why does he feel like the guy strapped into the electric chair is pulling one over on him?

Come and Watch a Man Die! is a strange story about living things being more than just meat, the universe being more than just molecules rubbing up against one another, and transcendence through unimaginable acts of violence.

Kyle B. Stiff

Kyle B. Stiff used to review video games for a living and developed a reputation as an out-of-control maverick because he never once used the phrase "edge of your seat" or claimed that a game would leave the player "breathless". He is hard at work writing and rewriting the various books in two epic series, Demonworld and Heavy Metal Thunder. The first is a post-apocalyptic "hero's journey" through the human condition; the second follows a branching narrative structure that borrows elements from the classic Choose Your Own Adventure and Lone Wolf gamebooks, then updates the genre with quality writing and adult themes. Kyle B. Stiff has been around long enough to know that he knows very little about the world, but he still studies mythology and human behavior because it's fun to make an effort to understand. He currently lives with his soulmate somewhere in Kentucky. He can be found at www.kylebstiff.wordpress.com and [e-mail].
