Short description

Horror At Cold Springs is a steampunk novella that takes you by train into the heart of the Midwest plains, where the town of Cold Springs lies empty. Once it arrives, even the train refuses to budge. What sinister forces have caused the town's evacuation? And will the Colt revolvers be enough for the intrepid little group to engage the evils that lurk within it?

Extended description

Michael Merriam's steampunk novelette begins with a bunch of Englishmen at a steam fair in New York City and takes the reader on a journey west toward California. Story notables include the Duke of Wellington, several British Lords, and a spymaster . . . but not everyone arrives alive, courtesy of the monstrosity they encounter.

Review by: Byron Paul on Jan. 03, 2012 :
decent horror. steampunkish, but still more 'horror' at heart and also weird-western
(reviewed long after purchase)
