WHOA! Christmas time! Santa’s invited me on his gift-giving rounds! We’re chatting, laughing, drinking chocolate from a thermos when we land on a snow-covered rooftop for our latest stop. Suddenly a ring of tiny, shadowed elf-silhouettes surround us. St. Nick is confused. “Bushy? Sugarplum? What’s going on?” Evil cackles. “We’ve gotten a better offer ‘boss’—we work for Monsanto now. And you? You’re out of the picture.” Santa’s face twists in horror and the bastards rush in with raised knives. I open my eReader. Magic flash. “Catch, Santa!” I throw him the demon-forged katana Muramasa and an M60 machine gun. He catches the gun first, one-handed (‘cos Santa’s a beast) and disintegrates the first elf’s face with a hellish blast of lead. He catches the sword next and keeps flowing with the movement in a downward swipe; Elf #2 stops in his tracks and splits sickeningly in two from a perfect bisecting cut. I watch in horror and awe as Santa’s betrayers get what they deserve.
If you’re ever hanging out with Santa and you see some low f***ers trying to pull a Julius Caesar on him…Echo Vol. 1 is $0.99 on Kindle here: Vol. 1 on Kindle. Vol. 2 on Kindle here: Vol.2 on Kindle.
