The Desert


Bryon Morrigan - 2007
    During the opening engagements of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, a platoon of U.S. soldiers disappears. The Army attributes this disappearance to the "fog of war," and the subsequent investigation into the disappearance fails to locate even a single body or destroyed vehicle. Six years later, two soldiers on a routine search for "weapons of mass destruction" locate a cave with the remains of one of the missing soldiers and his journal. Unfortunately, Captain Henderson and Specialist Densler find out all too soon that what happened to the "Lost Platoon" is also happening to them. Trapped, they must confront this unspeakable menace, or risk suffering the same fate as that of the soldier in the cave. "Bryon Morrigan's first novel, THE DESERT, is everything you hope to find in a first novel and then some. An original plot, solid characterization and a refreshing change of pace from the standard chains rattling in the attic. A fine mesh of horror and military drama that I can't recommend enough." -James A. Moore, author of BLOOD RED & HARVEST MOON "The Desert by Bryon Morrigan is a weird and wild novel of men againt monsters. In the grand tradition of James Cameron's Aliens, Bryon Morrigan gives a whipcrack tale of U.S. soldiers pitted against the very forces of Hell. It's fun, fast-paced, and deliciously creepy." -Jonathan Maberry, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of GHOST ROAD BLUES & BAD MOON RISING

The Road to Nowhere


Lee Argus - 2011
    My victims were not people in the strictest sense, but they once were.I woke in a dark room, not knowing where I was or how I had got there. My eyes could vaguely make out the white walls that surrounded me. The faint smell of disinfectant lingered in the room, but there was something it failed to conceal. It was a pungent smell, making me think of old pennies and spoiled meat.I tried to remember where I was. A few vague images and dim recollections slipped away as soon as my mind futility grasped at them. Why couldn’t I remember? Was there an accident? I still knew what things were. I knew the thing underneath of me was called a bed. What I couldn’t remember was anything that personally related to me. My past, my name, and even my appearance were things that didn’t exist in my mind. How could I have forgotten?To my left were windows covered in thick heavy curtains. Hardly any light made its way into the room, which made it difficult to see my surroundings.
