DEAD WEST takes elements of Deadwood, The Walking Dead, and Hell on Wheels, puts it all in a big cask of TNT, then watches it go BOOM! Collecting Those Poor, Poor Bastards and The Ten Thousand Things in a spectacular omnibus edition, this is 420+ pages of Weird Western, Supernatural, Lovecraftian horror, with "strong female characters!" The DEAD WEST OMNIBUS (vol. 1) puts half-Shoshone Nina Weaver, her grizzled father Lincoln, and a motley crew of survivors and ne'er-do-wells through a gauntlet of undead hordes and demonic forces from 'deaduns' to giant, flying creatures, to hellish steam engines, to actual murders of devil-crows. The Dead West series has it all. Guns, explosives, bloodletting, necromancy, expletives, faith-magic, gore, betrayal, more expletives, lots of true grit and high emotion! Brought to you in a collaborative storyhouse style by the team of Tim Marquitz, J.M. Martin, and Kenny Soward. "The writing is visceral in a style similar to Chuck Wendig's...this is a high-octane story." --Ryan Lawler, Fantasy Book Review "Unique, fresh, invigorating. Those Poor, Poor Bastards will sink its teeth into you and leave you wanting more. It's a crime not to read this right away." --Sarah Chorn, Bookworm Blues "Two parts bullets, three parts shambling undead, one part Lovecraftian magic, and ALL fast-paced action! This is one wild ride!" --Becca Butcher, Voluted Tales Magazine

Nowhere else has quite the allure that west Texas cities, plains, and ranchlands have; this book is your guide to it all. West Texas is where deep blue mesas at the Big Bend and the plunging, layered walls of Palo Duro Canyon inspire awe; where off-the-beaten-path towns serve fine cuisine; where you can find a Picasso original hanging in a jailhouse museum; where views go on forever and millions of stars come out at night. Nowhere else has quite the allure that these cities, plains, and ranchlands have; this book is your guide to it all. Distinctive for their accuracy, simplicity, and conversational tone, the diverse travel guides in our Explorer's Great Destinations series meet the conflicting demands of the modern traveler. They're packed full of up-to-date information to help plan the perfect getaway. And they're compact and light enough to come along for the ride. A tool you'll turn to before, during, and after your trip, these guides include chapters on lodging, dining, transportation, history, shopping, recreation, and more; a section packed with practical information, such as lists of banks, hospitals, post offices, laundromats, numbers for police, fire, and rescue, and other relevant information; maps of regions and locales, and more.
