Description
A Demon Hunter with a gift that becomes a curse. A Demon that hunts the hunter. A thrilling tale of darkness and vengeance for fans of the TV series 'Supernatural'. Drew Price has a gift, or perhaps a curse. When a demon possesses a person, Drew can see the horrific-looking demon that dwells within. This ability has made him a demon hunter, armed with the one weapon that can send these fiends back to Hell; the demon dagger. A demon named Nicobar sets its sights on punishing this hunter. It starts by taking the soul of Drew's son, condemning the boy to life as a psychopath. This fast-paced, chilling novel follows Drew's attempt to save his son's soul and then use the blade to end Nicobar's time on Earth. AUTHOR: Russell James grew up on Long Island, New York and spent too much time watching Chiller, Kolchak: The Night Stalker, and The Twilight Zone, despite his parents' warnings. Bookshelves full of Stephen King and Edgar Allan Poe didn't make things better. He graduated from Cornell University and the University of Central Florida. After a tour flying helicopters with the US Army and a career in technical writing, he now spins twisted tales best read in daylight. He has written over a dozen paranormal thrillers including The Portal and The Playing Card Killer. His successful Grant Coleman sci-fi series includes Cavern of the Damned, Monsters in the Clouds, and Curse of the Viper King. He follows the monster-hunting adventures of Park Service Ranger Kathy West in Claws and Dragons of Kilauea. He has four short story collections: Tales from Beyond, Outer Rim, Forever Out of Time, and Deeper into Darkness.

Reviews"James (Lambs Among Wolves) makes a familiar trope fresh in this gripping horror novel ... a thrilling game of supernatural cat and mouse." -- Publishers Weekly "Chock full of action, perfect for horror fans who like their reads quick." -- Booklist "Demon Dagger is a quick read and a solid four stars, an immensely enjoyable page-turner that wastes no time and will keep you engrossed right from the beginning." -- Matthew Davis, Grimdark Magazine "I am a great fan of Russell James's stories. He creates great atmosphere, authentic settings and characters, and cool plots. Demon Dagger is no exception [...] Great Story. Don't miss it." -- Cat Cavendish, author of IN DARKNESS SHADOWS BREATHE "Russell James and Flame Tree Press is a good match and a recipe for an exciting and terrifying tale [...] Demon Dagger is an entertaining and sometimes terrifying tale of the struggle of good against evil. James keeps the novel flowing quickly throughout and the action is almost non-stop." -- Josef Hernandez "A fast-paced thriller filled with all the gore of a disemboweled beast. In the world of demon-slaying tales, this novel is unique." -- City Book Review "A hugely entertaining story of all-too-human heroes battling soul-devouring demons. James' best novel yet!" -- Tim Waggoner, author of We Will Rise "Demons. Possession. Stolen souls. And a body count that's rising. Demon Dagger delivers all this and more as novice demon hunter Drew Price must stop one of Hell's most powerful archdemons before the creature destroys Drew's family. Russell James doesn't pull any punches as this story races to a thrilling climax. Warning: don't read Demon Dagger at night, because you won't be able to put it down until you finish it, and you'll end up getting no sleep!" -- JG Faherty, author of The Wakening and Sins of the Father
