Houarner sets off a powder keg of awl-sharp imagery, occult intellect, and bad-to-the-bone super- naturalism to further evolve one of the most terrifying character-lines the genre has seen. An irresistible thriller, horror, and fantasy novel wrapped up as one, by an author who writes like Thomas Pynchon possessed by demons.” —Edward Lee, author of Max the Assassin is in Hell. ![]() “A fascinating and thought- provoking dark fantasy that displays Gerard Houarner’s top of the line literary craftsmanship, Road From Hell is the perfect finale to the Max trilogy. Steeped in mythology and the bizarre wonders of the supernatural, the novel crosses genre borders as Max battles ghosts and demons from the very pit of oblivion. Houarner’s prose is tight, the imagery shocking, and the scenes haunting and diabolically terrifying.” —Tom Piccirilli, author of "With his latest opus in the Max saga, Gerard Houarner conjures up some of the most exotic, ferocious depictions of evil and retribution you’re ever likely to encounter. There’s a genuine sense of malice and bad intentions here, yet it’s unleashed in the service of a tale of love, sacrifice, and even something like redemption. The Road From Hell not only brings Max’s current path to a fitting sense of closure, but also resets the stage for something fresh and new … whenever Houarner chooses to go down that road." — Brian Hodge, author of |
