Publisher Description:
Inspired by a suggestion from legendary book reviewer, author
and multi-term Short Mystery Fiction Society President Kevin R. Tipple, here’s
the holiday anthology that’s definitely not filled with Christmas cheer. It will,
however, be sure to entertain the darker side of your imagination.
Christmastime is a season full of
stress. Cooking, decorations, trying to find the perfect gift for people you
barely know. It’s enough to make anyone snap. Now, imagine you’re Santa Claus
and you’ve got the entire world to take care of.
Yeah, cookies and milk isn’t
going to make that kind of pressure go down any easier. Add in flippant
reindeer, elves who slack and Mrs. Claus nagging that you never spend enough
time with her during the holidays and it’s enough to make your Kris wanna Kringle,
if you know what we mean.
Welcome to Santa Rage: A Killer Claus Compendium in
which Mr. North Pole himself finally snaps and gets his just desserts…and we’re
not talking gingerbread. Within these ten stories Claus dishes out his own
brand of justice to nonbelievers, kidnappers, meth and other drug dealers while
protecting strippers and doling out some of the best doses of karma Santa ever
dealt that did not involve coal.
These ten stories of
grindhouse-level revenge, horror, and action come courtesy of Kevin R. Tipple,
Alexander Bayliss, KM Rockwood, Dante Bilec, Kurtis Rupé, MJ McClymont, E.
Catherine Tobler, Erica Barnes, Justin Hunter and Leon Peter Blanda.
