THE SAND DRAGON
If you enjoyed 24 Bones, you may also enjoy THE SAND DRAGON. Michael’s horror novel.
The discovery of an immense pterosaur skeleton lures paleontologist Kim Axon to the tar sands near her childhood home of Fort Mic. But Kim’s not the only one drawn to the find’s siren call, and the others are coming for a very different reason.
Fort Mic, where Kim’s father was murdered long ago, is both blessed and cursed by the shadow population who gravitate to the area for cheap trailers while they mine the sands for oil. Townsfolk begin to fall sick. Fearing the spread of the strange disease, the new doctor quarantines the town.
Now alone, the broken community must rise above its past to battle outsiders who do not fear the return of an ancient evil, but worship it.
Some Nice Words
“I could go on and on and on listing all the different things that worked for me about this story, but I’ll leave it up to you to read the book and enjoy the creepiness for yourself.” Blog With Bite.
“Each character had their own flavor and world building that was exemplary. Their bleak lives were thrust at you with nothing hidden, open for you to relate to, sympathize, or hate. I almost believed that this was a non-fiction, the characters were so very poignant. Not only that, his story telling was gritty and in-your-face that will leave you shivering and begging for more…” Parajunkee’s View
“Ancient evil …modern terror. Stewart weaves a terrific tale!” Derek Gunn, author of Vampire Apocalypse and The Estuary.
