If you like Hellboy · Buffy · Underworld · Evil Dead · Van Helsing
Nobody wears their underwear on the outside. Nobody has a destiny. What they do have: deadly powers, a city full of supernatural threats, and a ragtag team that probably shouldn't survive — but does anyway.
Heavy on action, horror, and dark comedy. Light on clichés. Includes a wily wereferret who is not to be underestimated.
The Author
S Mays grew up in a small rural town in Virginia, spending childhood building elaborate stories in his head, reading whatever books were hidden around the house, and making frequent trips into his grandmother's armoire attempting to find the entrance to Narnia.
These days, when not working for The Man, he spends time at home with his wife and their menagerie of pets — cats, dogs, and an army of ferrets. His interests include reading, RPG and strategy video games, and anything absurd (Rick and Morty, GoT, Comedy Bang Bang). Because reality is boooring.
He writes the kinds of stories he wanted to read but couldn't find. Dark, occasionally funny, usually dangerous, always moving.
And yes — the missing period after the first initial is intentional. The period ruins the aesthetics of the cover. You've got this sexy "S" there, tempting and alluring, then an ugly round dot plopped down beside it, like a Victoria's Secret model with spinach in her teeth. No period, period.
