The newest Cal Leandros novel from Rob Thurman—New York Times bestselling author of Nevermore and Downfall. You want to know what it's like being dead? I'll tell you. Yeah, I'll tell you all about it, everything you didn't want to know and then I'll tell you more. Because death is easy, dying's a bitch, but there's worse than both. Worse than your tiny little minds could dream of... There’s nothing like being dead to give someone a new purpose in life. Cal Leandros has been there, done that, and decided that death just wasn’t his style. Now he’s back. Stuck eight years in the past; trying desperately to save his younger self and everyone he cares about; and playing a killer game of hide-and-seek with a godlike lunatic with murderous powers, a hair-trigger temper, and a true passion for blood, pain, and death eternal. And unless Cal can keep both his mind and body together—without descending into complete soul-rending insanity—the next time he ends up dead, he’s going to stay that way...
Author
Rob Thurman is currently writing three series for Penguin Putnam's imprint ROC FANTASY, as well as a brand-new mainstream series for Simon & Schuster's POCKET BOOKS. Rob has also written for a Charlaine Harris & Toni L.P. Kelner Anthology, WOLFSBANE AND MISTLETOE. This year, Rob contributed a post-apocalyptic, "grim" faerie tale Western to the anthology, COURTS OF THE FEY. Rob's work is dark, non-stop action from beginning to end, rife with purely evil sarcasm as sharp as a switchblade - and probably nearly as illegal. If one shoved LORD OF THE RINGS, THE SHINING, and PULP FICTION into a wood-chipper, the result would be what Rob aims to deliver in a novel or short story. A member of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA), ROB THURMAN lives in RURAL Indiana - land of endless fields, infinite cows and where dialup is still the only soul-crushing option.
