HORROR
Caldera
by Heath StallcupFor years, the biggest threat that Yellowstone was thought to offer was in the form of its semi-dormant supervolcano. Little did anyone realize the threat was real and slowly working its way to the surface, but not in the form of magma. Lying deep within the bowels of the earth itself, an ancient virus waited. Recently credited with the extinction of Neanderthal man, the virus erupts into a crowded Yellowstone. The park is packed with sightseers and party-goers during a benefit concert who are all now fodder for the ancient rage virus. Follow along as Park Rangers and local Sheriffs find themselves overwhelmed with a park full of infected human cannibals

Hunter
by Heath Stallcup
Born of Viking stock, careered into the Swedish Navy, Sven Ericsson finds himself in the fabled New World.

Fighting his new unnatural status, Sven steers clear of humanity, skulking along the fringe of society, and filling his inhuman need with the blood of the outcasts or the easily forgotten. A shadow among the shadows...until extraordinary events, centuries later, force him to emerge from the dark. A mishap of his own making pits Sven Ericsson into a moral quandary that will remind him what it means to be a warrior. He is a killer. A fighter. And a Hunter of his own kind.Buy on Amazon!
