The Angel of the Abyss
Tales of Jake Hatcher #3 Coming Soon
After witnessing his former lover disappear into perdition, Jake may finally have a way to free her, but a deal with the devil should never be taken lightly. Will Jake have what it takes to survive a battle of wit with both an unknown contender for the Throne of Damnation and the being that has been its occupant since the dawn of creation.
American Nocturne
Bram Stoker Award nominated collection
As a nocturne captures the mood of the night, reminding you of things that happen after dark falls, this collection evokes that liminal time after sundown, when moonlight owns the earth, and you can wander in thoughtful silence. But this time, you are a hopelessly lost trespasser. And the locals are armed and shoot to kill.
Moonless Nocturne
Tales of Dark Fantasy and Horror Noir
Prepare to delve into uncharted realms of darkness, where things best unseen linger long after you’ve returned to the relative safety of daylight. These tales of the fantastic will flow through your imagination like the notes of a nocturne through a haunted forest on a soundless night… an endless night… a moonless night.
“THE ANGEL OF THE ABYSS proves why Hank Schwaeble is one of the true gunslingers of modern horror fantasy. I could not put this book down. Brilliant, ballsy and badass. This one’s a killer.”
—Jonathan Maberry
New York Times bestselling author of Rage
