No Guilt of Bloodshed
by John Baltisberger
“If the thief is found breaking in, and is struck so that he dies, there shall be no guilt of bloodshed for him.” — Exodus 22:2
1859 Malechai ben Pallache, a Ukranian-Jew and soldier of fortune who has made his way through the world fueled by blood and pain has been enlisted to hunt down Dragan, the bastard priest who kicked off the pogroms before fleeing to California. But the profane holy man has more than blood on his hands, he has also stolen a box that holds terrible evil. Brodie is infested with hungry demons and dangerous men, gold and vice drawing in the worst that humanity or demonkind have to offer, all standing between Malechai and the priest. But, he does not travel alone. Joined by a succubus of terrible power and the silent golem Mishpat, Malechai will stop at nothing to find Dragan and bring his twisted reign to an end. What follows is a blood-drowned, hatred-fueled battle of wills, bullets, and mutilation that will forever stain the ground of Brodie California.

All of Your Dreams Will Come True When You Are Dead
by John Wayne Comunale
The culling took most of the men from Cochran Texas away to a dusty old town that exists between this plane and the next called Cocytus. Run by a maniacal power-hungry man named Lycus and his adopted protégé daughter Alastor, he conducts chaos with the help of a group of bandits called Calamity Three. His goal: tip the cosmic scales to bring the Void crashing into the world and claim the place of power to which he believes he is owed. Loyalty is a flimsy commodity in Cocytus, and with Behemoth rushing from the celestial abyss to heed a distant call this small Texas town nestled somewhere between here and hell has no idea what’s in store.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Strange Stones
by Edward Lee and Mary SanGiovanni
Professor Everard, weird fiction scholar and proclaimed critic of H.P Lovecraft’s works, is no stranger to making people mad. Giving convention presentations on the triteness and melodrama of Lovecraft’s work pays the bills, though. Sometimes he even gets laid.
When he angers a beautiful but dangerous witch and devotee of Lovecraft’s work, she casts a spell on him, sending him to a dimension where Lovecraft’s works are very real—and very deadly. Everard must find a way through this alternate dimension to get home, before the worst of Lovecraft’s horrors prove what a master of monstrosities he really was.
Edward lee’s humorous transgressive style meets Mary SanGiovanni’s literary touch to carve out the Lovecraftian dimensions that is Strange Stones.

Depraved Halloween
by Bryan Smith
JESSICA SLOAN RETURNS IN AN ALL-NEW INSTALLMENT IN THE DEPRAVED SERIES BY BRYAN SMITH.
It’s time to go back to the backwoods with Jessica Sloan. After lying low for years, a stirring of wanderlust compels the former professional assassin to hit the road. On the day before Halloween, she starts driving south with no particular destination in mind. Low on gas, she stops in Montclair, a small town deep in the heart of rural Alabama that conjures uncomfortable memories of Hopkins Bend, the depraved backwater burg where her life changed forever years ago.
At first Jessica chalks these feelings up to paranoia, but before long it becomes clear that all her worst fears are justified. The deranged denizens of Montclair are, if anything, even more sick and twisted than all her previous adversaries.
The dead will rise. Copious quantities of blood will be spilled. Minds and…things…will be altered. Because in Montclair, especially on Halloween, depravity is a way of life.
DEPRAVED HALLOWEEN functions as a direct “sequel in spirit” to the original book in the series. Though it isn’t a reboot that negates previous sequels, it is not necessary to have read those sequels to enjoy Jessica’s latest adventure.
