A BODY SNATCHER IN GREASETOWN? The Gorshin Institute offers a miracle cure for rich and famous addicts. When a millionaire's son in Wildclown's care goes missing, the detective has to risk it all to clear his name. Wildclown battles through a gruesome landscape of undead bandits and body snatchers to a final showdown with a mad scientist high above the World of Change.
A WANDERER on the road keeps losing track of time ... and place. His only clues to who he is come from the many fatal wounds on his body and the recurring nightmares of a doomsday cop, a gunslinging clown and a maniac on a mission from God. Are they echoes from his past life, or is he haunted by something that followed him back from the grave? The living dead walk the road with him, feral beasts trail behind and it’s been raining nonstop for days; but those mysteries, like the circumstances surrounding his own death, can wait ... For now, he believes that a life can be saved if he can just remember his name. THE NIGHT ONCE MORE returns to the World of Change where people stopped aging, the dead rose from their graves, it started raining and it’s been raining ever since. But a guy’s got to make a living, doesn’t he? THE NIGHT ONCE MORE takes the reader to a unique setting that mixes Gothic horror with the two-fisted pragmatism of a hard-boiled detective novel.
A DARK-HAIRED beauty comes calling with news of a compound being built south of Greasetown where neo-Nazis are setting up shop. They claim to be turning over a new leaf, but she knows different and wants Wildclown to join the band of mercenaries she's hired to stop the cancerous cult before it spreads. The detective almost accepts the damsel's desperate mission, but doesn't trust the righteous passion in her eyes. Wildclown hasn't been back on the job long enough to take any leaps of faith that might risk alienating his partner Elmo. And he sure doesn’t want to get him killed again. Business is business, after all, and pretty green eyes were a dime a dozen for a detective agency that needed every dollar. When the woman politely accepts the detective’s refusal, it leaves him feeling worse, and doubting his abilities that have yet to be fully tested since his return. So, when Wildclown later learns the bad news about her mission, his guilty conscience goes into high gear, and an investigation leads him to an ancient evil that refuses to believe he isn't on the case. RETURN TO THE WORLD OF CHANGE in DAMNED WITH THE DEVIL sixth book in The Wildclown Mysteries and sequel to THE NIGHT ONCE MORE.

The infection still haunts the ravaged landscape despite a decade passing since survivors first felt their sanity return.

THE VARIANT SQUAD barely had time to get back on its feet before the screaming started. Someone was getting skinned alive, and they knew it. But many of their comrades have just fallen to their deaths, and others are still missing, so Captain Beachboy knows that answering the cry for help would be suicide. Skin Eater packs are still hunting on the levels above and below them, and it’s only a matter of time before their ugly craving returns and they attack again. And that’s not the end of it. A murderous Kill Squad sent by an unknown enemy must have followed them underground. It has the Lazarus team’s innocent blood on its hands, and Beachboy suspects the unknown assassins are committed to spilling 9-Squad’s too. And the old myths about the basement are proving true. Something with an appetite for pain is haunting the bunker complex and feeds its hunger through the Biter packs. It has also poisoned the place with the Varion molecule that causes the lethal new form of the Variant Effect, forcing the squad to remain sealed in their bag-suits. And they’re running out of air. Variant Squad veteran Joe Borland knows that there are forces within the squad that might not want to win the battle underground, and would prefer leaving his bagged-comrades buried with the incriminating evidence they have found. So he’ll have to pick a side when his life’s on the line. In the meantime he and Beachboy take the squad survivors on a desperate search for a rumored escape tunnel while dark forces gather on all sides, and a secret clock winds down to doomsday and the final Variant Squad protocol of Ziploc, Gas and BURN! Explore the MADHOUSE to the END with BURN, third stage in the final chapters of The Variant Effect Series.
