"It's like DIE HARD's John McClane fightning zombies and demons."--Kim Paffenroth, author of the DYING TO LIVE series

“Bryon Morrigan has written an eerily true war story that grabs you on page one, tapping into the mysterious, half-mythological worlds of Barker, Gaiman, and Lovecraft.”--Peter Clines, author of EX-HEROES and EX-PATRIOTS

“Classic survival horror pitting a tough, sarcastic American soldier against an underground world’s unleashed monsters. Prepare yourself for an edge-of-your-seat story that starts with a bang and doesn’t let you go.”--Craig DiLouie, author of THE INFECTION
and TOOTH AND NAIL
