Read Hellhound Storyline:

Bones is BACK! The hero of Bones: The Complete Apocalypse Saga returns in this standalone tale of madness, mass murder, and mayhem. After a SWAT mission goes bad in the East Harlem projects, Bones, a law enforcement K9 on loan from the Pittsburgh Police Force, is rescued by a local family. Suspecting a recent series of horrific deaths are connected to a mysterious black mastiff who wanders the area like a ghost, the youngest member of the family enlists the semi-heroic shepherd to stop the beast before anyone else must die...Collecting Bones, Shepherd, Alpha, and Mongrel, Bones: The Complete Apocalypse Saga spent six weeks on Amazon's Top 100 Horror Bestseller and rose to #1 in five countries. Hellhound is the first in a new series of Bones prequel adventures.Review"Bones is a tale of flesheating zombie terror. What separates it from the current horde of undead drivel is the simple fact that the protagonist (and title character) is a dog. Now, before your fragile mind breaks with bad memories of the insipid original Hills Have Eyes 2, wherein a canine is not only featured prevalently but even has its own flashback, rest assured that this attempt is handled with a greater degree of subtlety and intelligence." -Fangoria"As the story goes on, Bones's sense of smell becomes quite important as a tool for the people in the story to find the undead menace, so he winds up in a series of increasingly exciting and bloody set-pieces. It's a pretty graphic tale, full of viscera and various grue. Bones is a fine example of quality, independent horror literature. A new take on the zombie outbreak story, it's a good, quick read and well worth your time." -Jon Is The Best Blog"Somebody needs to jump on Wheaton's Bones stories - a really unique zombie tale that has a cadaver dog as the main character. It's like Benji and The Dawn of the Dead (well, not really as Bones is no Benji, but he's totally lovable!)." -Badass Digest"I kind of like dry humor and oddities. I'm not so much for books that are so gory they make you wince. I like a good story. This novella was perfect for me because it met all of those criteria. A great Halloween-ish read!" -Candy's RavesAbout the AuthorCalled a "quite gifted storyteller" by Fangoria magazine and "an exciting new voice in the speculative, dark fantasy genre" by author Michael (Enter, Night) Rowe, Mark Wheaton is the author of the bestselling and critically-acclaimed indie horror novels Sunday Billy Sunday and Flood Plains as well as novellas including Ascension, Last Tuesday, Night of the Scorpions, Stuttering Hunter, and the popular Bones trilogy.
