Schrödinger's Demon - Ian Thompson - Bog

Six mercenaries seek an ancient relic - before cultists can unleash the demon that dwells inside it. The team is led by Turner, a veteran soldier with a haunted past, and includes: Venny, a female throat-slitting infiltrator; Flomo, an over-enthusiastic Liberian explosives expert; and Kurt Neumann, an ex-special forces cold-killer. Their mission takes them deep into a South American jungle to assault the cultist's hidden shrine. Outnumbered and possessing little knowledge of their enemies, the team will have to rely on their lethal skills to survive... Conflicts and slaughters are just their first problems. When the demon escapes its prison, Turner's team is almost massacred by the monster's unholy supernatural powers... Worse still, the hellspawn begins to unleash catastrophes upon the world. Death, destruction, insanity and torment erupt like plagues across the planet... Only the survivors of Turner's expedition have any hope of stopping the threat. Following a desperate, near-suicidal plan, the elite killers must square off against this force from hell- with the lives of billions at stake... Yet how can they defeat a creature which cannot die?

"...great... I could feel the fear..."
"...shows true mastery of the short horror story... a wildly imaginative antagonist unlike anything I've read before... a quick, captivating read full of horror and thrills. The tense action and suspense of Glancing Blow make it incredibly hard to put down..."

"...When the blood starts to splatter, Nigel's day gets really rough. Thompson has devised a brilliantly brutal creature to sic on his leading man. Creative and twisted, the monster is a total terror... Hooker is an absolutely insane, blood-pumping ride... With a wicked cool monster and a page-turning climax, this is one Creature Feature you won't want to miss out on..."

"...extremely well written and very dark. The author did a great job of creating a palpable sense of doom that surrounds the main character from the beginning, and then creating more tension and horror as the story went on..."
