    The year is 1877. The reclusive vampire Lourdes has gone West to escape the temptation of the growing American nation; however, what he presumed was a pure land of only sky and sand turns out to be filled with vice and worse - more of his preternatural kind. And when Lourdes shoots dead a vampire preying on the closest thing to innocence in the Old West, a brothel worker named Katterina, he ends up igniting a war that puts himself, Katterina, and the whole of her little town in the crosshairs of a gang of vampire outlaws. To save the girl, Lourdes must do battle with otherworldly bandits, a corrupt priest, a cowardly sheriff, and the relentless desert sun. And, even if Lourdes can overcome these obstacles, he will have to protect Katterina from his own vampiric hunger. Lourdes's story threads a central narrative rich with gunfights and fangs together with interludes into the inner workings and underbellies of the denizens the vampire cowboy encounters on his journey. It paints a portrait of a lawless world which no longer exists, one in which the difference between good, bad, law, and outlaw is often no bigger than a grain of sand. "With Lourdes, Peter Tatara has delivered a well-crafted genre mash up and an unforgettable main character. Fans of Stephen King's Dark Tower cycle are sure to love this novel." - Robert Place Napton (Dark Wraith of Shannara, Son of Merlin, Battlestar Galactica Origins: Adama) "Tatara is to be commended for his remarkable ambition, talent, and skill, and I am quite positive this won't be the last we'll be hearing from this vibrant new author." - Joshua Ortega (The Other Dead, Gears of War) "Anyone new to the Vampire Western genre should most certainly allow Lourdes's odyssey to be their very first bite." - Matt Hawkins (FORT90, Attract Mode) Cover Design by Eric Maruscak - PepperInk.com Cover Photo by Olivier Le Queinec - Shutterstock.com

    Welcome to the Weird Wild West of New York City Horsepower here is measured in hands or hooves while the caliber of weapon that you have on hand can make the difference between civilized life and death as it very much has proven to have been upon the much more volatile and open frontier of the Western United States where the streets are often equally dusty and lead can run as hot as the women are fast and the politics prove even faster. All around you there are people who are not as they appear and others who watch them. Supernatural and mortal unite to reach what peace that can be found between them as hunters can become prey and prey can become the hunter. Through a shared history that stretches from Roman times to that of the Weird Wild West and back where vengeance will be delivered and justice finally served. Join us as we continue their story as we move from coast to coast and points between.

    A young boy sets out to find and kill the man that murdered his father. The only problem is, the outlaw he pursues, by all accounts, was publicly hanged and buried years ago. He must discover how much truth there is behind his father's death, and whether or not he chases a horrifying reality or just another ghost story. The journey of vengeance may very well lead him to discover the wisdom of the old expression: "If you plot your enemies grave, then you better dig two."
