About the Book
Collecting four of Erdelac's dark adventure novellas.
With Sword And Pistol collects the long out-of-print "Red Sails," a horror-themed pirate adventure in which a British marine and a Dominican Blackfriar are captured by a cruel vampire captain and marooned on a cannibal isle to be hunted under the full moon by his crew of savage werewolves.
Second is "Night of The Jikininki," in which three disparate men, a casteless bandit, a sadistic samurai sword tester, and a vile, mad child killer band together to fight their way out of a feudal Japanese prison as it fills with the walking dead.
It also contains "Sinbad And The Sword Of Solomon," a high fantasy Arabian Nights-style sword and soul adventure, in which the titular sailor and his motley crew undertake a mission from the Caliph of Baghdad to retrieve a magic sword from a demon on an enchanted island.
Finally, the dark urban horror "Gully Gods," about a young South Houston gangster who joins up with a seemingly unstoppable clique of Liberian ex-child soldiers to take over a Chicago neighborhood from their Latino rivals, and learns the malicious source of their terrible power.
