From the 17th century and Scottish cannibal Sawney Bean's reign of terror to the 20th century and a runaway child hiding in an ominous cave, two destinies become entwined and an evil course is set. Mild-mannered Jack Breen works in a video shop in Bristol, living out a dull, uncomplicated existence. But Jack has no clue as to how complicated his life is about to become when a menacing figure walks in asking for "the sickest film you've got." Bane, proprietor of the horror-themed pub The Slaughter Inn, has an obsession with darkness, death-and Jack himself. As their lives become intertwined, Bane's tormenting of Jack becomes increasingly dangerous. When the evil reaches out to touch his friends with horrific results, he's determined to put a stop to it, no matter the cost. Jack's final conflict with Bane results in a disturbing journey deeper into the darkness within himself as he takes a bus ride down the Sawney Bean trail right into hell. You've got your ticket, now take your seat, the Maniacal Mystery Tour's about to begin. A 101 Ways to Hell novel set in the 1990s, Sawney Bone is by Leo Darke, the infamous author of Lucifer Sam and Pandemonium.

"Leo Darke has created a heavy metal nightmare made of hard-driving prose, a dark sense of humor, and a jovial nod to 1980s horror fiction. There's sex, gore, and suspense to spare, and it all unfolds to a heavy metal beat. An enjoyable read." -Ray Garton, author of Crucifax and Ravenous "Death Metal has a new vanguard band-and a literal meaning. This band's music is truly Killer." -Mallory A. Haws, The Haunted Reading Room "Just like the punk rock era that it so finely evokes, Darke's tale is edgy, dangerous, thrilling, unpredictable, and scary. Lucifer Sam rocks. Hard." -Stuart R. West, author of Twisted Tales from Tornado Alley and Ghosts of Gannaway The Day the Music DiedWhen a private jet carrying internationally acclaimed rock band Cat O' Nine Tails vanishes over the Indian Ocean, the shockwaves were felt around the world. There was no wreckage, no bodies, no black box recordings to provide clues as to what happened to the musicians. They were simply gone.Rock 'n' Roll Will Never DieJust as the world is recovering from the loss of Cat O' Nine Tails comes news that the jet carrying the band has mysteriously re-appeared in the same air space from which it had vanished six months ago. Was it a publicity stunt? The band is unable-or unwilling-to answer that question. They were "lost. But now we're back…" with the promise of a new album with a killer new sound coming soon.There's something definitely not right with the band, but the nation is too firmly in the grip of Cat O' Nine Fever to notice. And as the formerly affable, much-loved Cat O' Nine Tails gears up for a new stadium show, it falls to Cat's original front man, sacked years before, and the members of a virtually unknown punk band, Lucifer Sam, to uncover the real threat behind the massive publicity drive.
