He(LL) is Risen, Part I, "Seasons in the Abyss"

Supernatural Selection

In a pit on the high plains of New Mexico, Bryan comes to life nailed to a cross and discovers that he can regenerate dead animals. To aid our ailing, overpopulated planet, they devour the "shadow souls" among us, fueling his resurrection of wolves, pumas, grizzlies, and other species. Nearly invincible, one weakness is the amount of life force they require.

Henry drives for Coyote Cab in the desert ghetto of Astro City. A wound no one sees that began in childhood has been flaring up as he enters a May/September romance with a charming empath named Violet. Stranded together at The Union Hotel near the town of Mission Hill, she helps draw memories and trauma from his infected soul likenable to shrapnel, or puzzle pieces. The inner world of the wound includes a bestial entity named Mother and the trixter spirit of Henry's dead twin, Eddie.

Flanked by Lobo the undead wolf-dog and a bobcat named Bob, Bryan intends to grow his army to cut the population in half, preventing environmental holocaust. Mother aspires to wipe humans out entirely. Only Henry addressing a "boy made of frozen tears" can stop them. Consumers aren't just for breakfast anymore. He(LL) is Risen. So, part 1 of this book is on Kindle. Soon to be a paperback. In a day or 2. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MQGCG3Y?fbclid=IwAR3F4jh5RY9Gu6KVg1OFSWddCRG5T7HiiljNCqmDtD9ujuB8CsmHJ4FGiyk
