Hate Machine

Necromancer Eric Carter has to face the nightmares of his past if he's ever going to have a future in Stephen Blackmoore's brutally dark urban fantasy series… Eric Carter has lived a life few could imagine. Or want. He's raised the dead, been dead, become, battled, and buried a few gods, been forced to slaughter countless thousands out of desperate necessity, and is currently inhabiting the exhumed corpse of his own dirty rotten bastard grandfather. So, when it comes to revisiting his past, he's not exactly eager. But he'd better get real eager, real fast. Eric has received a mysterious call from Las Vegas. A call from one of his own dreadful creations known as the Oracle. It wasn't easy to make, what with having to saw a guy's head off and all. And it isn't easy to control, what with it being able to manipulate the future. And that's the problem. Because now, it's not only affecting the future. It's changing the past. For the worse. And if Eric can't reunite a team of his worst associates to get the Oracle back, the world is literally going to hell. Praise for the Eric Carter series: "Blackmoore employs Chandleresque prose to smoothly incorporate a hard-boiled sense of urban despair into a paranormal plot, with occasional leavening provided by smart-aleck humor." — Publishers Weekly on Dead Things "In a world where Aztec Mythology, dark magic and grim reality blend together, nothing is what it appears to be... Best of all, Blackmoore's chillingly good storytelling skills ensures that fans will enjoy every step of this adrenaline fueled journey." — RT Book Reviews (Top Pick) on Broken Souls "This series is so fucking good. Blackmoore can't write these books fast enough to suit me. BROKEN SOULS is hyper-caffeinated, turbo-bloody face-stomping fun. This is the L.A-noir urban fantasy you've been looking for." — Kevin Hearne, Author of The Iron Druid Chronicles "Carter's wry voice is amusing as ever, but the grief he carries is palpable, adding depth and a sense of desperation to this action-packed adventure. Readers will be eager for more after this thrilling, emotionally fraught installment." — Publishers Weekly on Ghost Money, Starred Review Series Order: 1. Dead Things 2. Broken Souls 3. Hungry Ghosts 4. Fire Season 5. Ghost Money 6. Bottle Demon 7. Suicide Kings 8. Hate Machine 9. Cult Classic
