The Weird Tales Trilogy Series

You are about to enter a world of terror and pain!  In "Beta," a monster terrorizes an isolated village in the mountains of Eastern Europe, draining the blood of its victims, leaving them frozen in the snow. The villagers hunt wolves, decapitate "vampires," but the murders continue. As each new body is found, the residents grow more and more paranoid. Then the cobbler's son decides to investigate, discovering a terror that puts him in mortal danger. Who will be next? Will it ever end?  In "Salvation," a young girl and her friends discover a Federal soldier lying up against the fence that shelters her village from the outside world. He's injured and in pain, and tells the girl to go get help. She does, braving the Ring and the terrible beasts that live there. She'll tell the adults about the soldier, but the kind of help they'll give him isn't the kind he wants. In "City of Salt," a desperate man searches for salt in a post-apocalyptic city, despite the mutants that lurk the streets, hunting for human flesh. In "Prey," an old man with discovers a gruesome new fertilizer for his beloved flowers. And in Raleigh's Prep, a novel, Topher, Michael, and Kenneth find a mangled body on the rugby field of their new school. They decide to investigate-- inadvertently unleashing the horror that lurks in the woods that surrounds the campus. These are just a few of the macabre stories found within. Enter-- IF YOU DARE!

Another diverse collection of stories from the author of A Knife in the Back and YOU WILL BE SAFE HERE. In “Coming Home,” after the siege, Lily finds refuge in her favorite place: a pond a few miles outside of the city. There she is attacked and taken hostage by a lone enemy soldier. She thinks he’s going to kill her, but he has something else in mind. In “It Steals Things,” years after finally escaping Partlow, Va, Ben returns to help an old friend who is going through a tough time. But Mike doesn’t want help. He wants revenge.  In “The Legacy of the Monster Diego Tomas,” an apartment building in a city deluged by the rising oceans becomes a battle zone between the last people on Earth. And finally, in Topher’s Ton, the final chapter of the Topher Trilogy, the end of the world comes in a barrage of bombs, a rush of tsunami, and a hail of meteors. Topher, still recovering from his kidnapping by a deranged serial killer, manages to not only survive, but nearly rebuilds civilization. If it weren’t for Rasheed, the demented boy-god with a tank, or Nurse Smith, the deranged leader of a group of crazy doctors, or Liam Chris, a deranged despot seeking revenge, he might have been successful.
