Apocalypse Weird Books

Michael Bunker (Pennsylvania) and Nick Cole (The Old Man and the Wasteland) bring you a gritty tale of survival in the Post Apocalyptic Weird West Texas Badlands where towns have become abandoned wastelands and "Hordes," packs of feral, cannibalistic humans made so by a diet pill Slenderex, devour anything and anyone they can find in search of protein. A band of children, led by a boy barely a man, will stand against a rising tide of humans gone feral, greedy precious metal pirates and psychotic roving biker gangs to make a home for themselves atop a hidden valley. But when a member of the 88, a Man in Black simply known as Mayhem arrives in the badlands, Ellis and his small "family" of orphans and lost children will have to go underground into a mysterious system of tunnels to fight back and survive. Lord of the Flies meets Mad Max beneath the Apocalypse Weird.

“One of the Major Horror Authors of the 21st Century” – American Library Association. Once a warning whispered to bad children, the Black Bishop is all too real. With armies of Black Monks seeking out new recruits and a select coterie of self-mutilating nuns, his power is spreading like a plague, both in the real world and in the astral plain. The great windmills on the plains of Palm Springs are now home to the crucified; I-10 has been shut down and used as an asphalt strip where 'the staked' live their last joyous hours in a chrysalises of pain; and in Cathedral City cutters try and outdo themselves, slashing and cutting into their skin in epic contests against each other. The problem is that these people aren't being forced to do these things... they beg to do it… they ache to do it… And things are only getting worse. About the Author: “Weston is one of the best authors of our generation." —Brian Keene, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Rising "Weston Ochse has always been a wised-up, clued-in, completely trustworthy writer of high-action fiction that deserved a wider audience, and SEAL Team 666 is his breakthrough book. Here, every story-line is as taut as a gunfighter's nerves, and individual scenes pop like firecrackers. I raced through this novel and when it ended, I wanted more." —Peter Straub, New York Times-bestselling author of In the Night Room "Grunt Life was a major achievement in military SF! A real page- turner! This new chapter in the series is even better!" - David Gerrold, Hugo and Nebula Award Winner of The Martian Child Multiplex Fandango is a book that could almost have been written for me." - Eight-Time Bram Stoker Award Winner Joe R. Lansdale “Weston Ochse is to horror what Bradbury is to science fiction — an artist whose craft, stories and voice are so distinct and mesmerizing that you can't help but be enthralled.” —Dani Kollin, Prometheus Award-winning author of The Unincorporated Man "SEAL Team 666 is like X-Files and Torchwood written by Tom Clancy: ingenious, creepy, and entertaining." —Kevin J. Anderson, #1 international-bestselling author of Death Warmed Over “Weston Ochse is a mercurial writer, one of those depressingly talented people who are good at whatever they turn their hand to.” —Conrad Williams, August Derleth and International Horror Guild Award Winner "Weston Ochse is perhaps the fiercest and most direct of the latest generation of dark fiction writers. I watched awestruck year by year as the bright candle of his talent grew into a roaring bonfire of brutally honest output, matched only by his deep empathy for the human condition." —Rocky Wood, Bram Stoker award-winning author of Stephen King: A Literary Companion "A wild blend of nail-biting thriller action and out-of-the shadows horror. This is the supernatural thriller at its most dynamic. Perfect!" —Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling-author of Dead of Night and The King of Plagues
