God's Monsters (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798823204354)

Renounced priest Noble Lincoln finds hell upon the earth after being made a monster by the legendary African beast, the Asasabonsam, on a slave ship returning to America's new colonies.

Noble Lincoln's new African master plans to use him to navigate slave markets, seeking revenge on the men responsible for murdering his family and trading his wife into slavery. Noble plans suicide to stop himself from becoming a monster. Returning home to his wife Elizabeth for one last visit, he awakens covered in his wife's blood. Sorrow and fear of the newly awakened monster within him drive Noble back to the only place he has ever felt safe: the church.

Believing the beast is a demon, Noble demands the priest do an exorcism. That's when an angel steps in and, as divine punishment, places another curse on him. He cannot die, but he can never give in to the monster he has become and kill God's creatures. There is only one hope to escape the curse set upon him by God and the African monster from across the sea: he must await the return of his reincarnated wife. Noble must find her, and she must fall in love with him and forgive him for what he has become and for the evils of his past.

How can a creature with free reign only in the night hope to find one person in an ever-growing world and feed a monster who craves blood without giving in to it completely?

Readers who love occult and horror vibes with devastating stakes will find this a thrilling and suspenseful ride with plenty of despair and blood to match.
