"If you haven't read Gary Brandner, you're missing a treat." STEPHEN KING

The Howling Trilogy -- three books in one

The Howling

Karyn and her husband Roy had come to the peaceful California village of Drago to escape the savagery of the city. On the surface Drago appeared to be like most small rural towns. But it was not. The village had a most unsavory history. Unexplained disappearances, sudden deaths. People just vanished, never to be found...

The Howling II

For Karyn it was the howling. The howling that had heralded the nightmare in Drago... the nightmare that had joined her husband Roy to the she-wolf Marcia and should have ended forever with the fire. But it hadn't. Roy and Marcia were still alive, and deadly... and thirsty for the most horrifying vengeance imaginable...

The Howling III

They are man. And they are beast. Once again they stalk the night, eyes aflame, teeth flashing in vengeance. Malcolm is the young one. He must choose between the familiar way of the human and the seductive howling of the wolf. Those who share his blood want to make him one of them. Those who fear him want him dead. Only one woman and one man want to help him. Even though they can't believe their ears. Or their eyes...

"BEST NEW VAMPIRE TALES goes for the throat with chilling and innovative new takes on the undead. Highly recommended for the bloody-minded "

What do you do when the dead open their eyes?
Meet Stephenie Paige. She finds herself trapped in Hell. Not metaphorically, but physically. It's the only thing that makes sense.
Meet Carrie, Stephenie's daughter; she's five years old and cute as a button. And when she tells her mom that she needs the bathroom, her mom says, "No problem. I'll pull the car off the road at the next available place."
Welcome to King's Diner, the gateway to eternal suffering.
Carrie enters the restaurant while Stephenie has her hands full at the gas pump. But the pump isn't working, and the attendant is nowhere to be found. So she steps inside the restaurant...
...and discovers a slaughterhouse. The customers are dead; the staff are dead too. Twenty-odd people, chopped apart with an axe. There's blood everywhere.
Worse still... Carrie is suddenly missing.

From the author of THE DEAD PARADE, 13 DROPS OF BLOOD, and TERROR TOWN, comes more hardcore horror for those that like their fiction to be ultra-scary...

Within the hour James will witness the suicide of his closest friend, be responsible for countless murders, and become a fugitive from the police. In the shadow of his mind, a demon lurks. Bloodlust is a virus and it's infecting his logic. James has become a pawn in a game he does not understand, and only one thing is clear:

Survival is not an option.
"I loved this book; it's superbly well written. The metaphors are razor-sharp and inventive, the dialogue is fresh, authentic, and reveals familiar and believable characters efficiently and with minimal description."

David Hudnut, author of Night Walk
"From page one this book will grab you and not let go. Daley creates believable characters in a believable world. They do things that we only *wish* we could do. The action is non-stop and the gore is top notch. This is by far a stellar debut by a tremendous writer who you can only expect more good things from in the future."

James J. Melzer, author of The Zombie Chronicles

From the author of THE DEAD PARADE, INTO HELL, & TERROR TOWN comes 13 tales of horror, suspense, and imagination.

13 Drops of Blood has new spins on your old favorites, plus a whole lot more. Enter the gore-soaked exhibit, the train of terror, the graveyard of the haunted. Meet the scientist of the monsters, the woman with the thing living inside her, the living dead...

James Roy Daley unleashes quality horror stories with a flair for the hardcore. Not for the squeamish, nor is this collection for those who like their horror diluted with unnecessary drivel. A collection that goes for the throat in ways you've never expected--

There are reasons why people are talking about the things that creep from James Roy Daley's mind and onto the page, and 13 of them are right here, waiting for you.

Killer on the warpath. Monsters on the street. Vampires in the night. Zombies on the hunt. Welcome to Terror Town. The place where no one is safe. Nothing is sacred. All will die. All will suffer.

From the twisted mind of James Roy Daley, author of THE DEAD PARADE, INTO HELL, and 13 DROPS OF BLOOD, comes one of the most violently brutal stories ever told.

Terror Town isn't for the faint of heart. Adventure, fear, and mayhem await - delivered through an omnipresent viewpoint reminiscent of the early works of Stephen King and John Saul. Five stars
Matt Hults, author of Husk

Do you remember discovering Robert R. McCammon, or King's Carrie? Reading Terror Town you'll experience that same dark funhouse gravity. Spare but cinematic, the pace is crisp and moves well. Recommended
Author, Simon McCaffery

This book is the most disturbing, graphic, and disgusting book I've read in my entire life, hands down. I've never come across a story that is as horrifyingly brutal than this. That being said, you MUST read it
Eliose J. Knapp, author of The Undead Situation

The scariest book I have ever read in my life.
Cynthia Gould, High Heels Lo Fi

Twisted, unpredictable, and deliciously morbid, Terror Town has it all: horrifying creatures, vampires, zombies, and one of the best-written, sadomasochistic serial killers since 'Buffalo Bill.' Terror Town is the ultimate Scarefest

Something for every zombie fan a gut-wrenching mix of horror, humor and thrills
NATE KENYON, award-winning author of: THE BONE FACTORY and SPARROW ROCK

In an increasingly crowded graveyard of zombie anthologies, this is a real standout. The stories are thought provoking, chilling, and entertaining, proving that there's still plenty of life in this sub-genre. Long live zombies
TIM WAGGONER, award winning author of: DARKNESS WAKES and LIKE DEATH

James Roy Daley separates the goods from the gristle with a butcher's shrewd eye for the prime cuts that transcend mundane gut-munchery, shaking us awake and reminding us what it means to be alive.
