Sixteenth-Century Japan — a land suffering through the long night of Sengoku Jidai, the Age of Battles, a period of constant civil war, of anarchy and terror, of savagery and bloodshed and lots of other good stuff. The social order was shaken to its core; class distinctions blurred as military prowess became all-important. With luck, even a peasant could slash a place for himself among the mighty. 
Even a cat...

Samurai Cat Goes to the Movies

Miaowara Tomokato is back--and he's gone to his reward. The warrior who's defeated everyone from Darth Vader to Nazi dinosaurs has died and gone to Heaven--the fitting end to his illustrious career. Or not quite. For taking a little to much enthusiastic glee in wreaking vengeance, his faithful sidekick, Shiro, has been sent to Hell. Tomokato must now descend and retrieve Shiro from eternal damnation. Shiro, of course, isn't the only resident of Hell who knows the Samurai Cat. Tomokato encounters all the folks he's consigned to the lower realm, who want their last chance a the furry samurai.

Far to the north, ringed by thunderheads and bathed in unnatural heat, lies Khymir, city of inexhaustible wealth and suppurating squalor, of sorcery and unbridled decadence, where the streets teem with hordes of cut-throats, and demon-sendings rule the night. Enter Jagutai Jen-Shian, bastard son of the Great Khan Sartac. Sent to ensure the signing of a vital treaty, he's his father's deadliest henchman, a small, steely warrior whose fearsome Urguz bow is more than a match for any spell. Opposing him is the demented High Priest of Tchernobog, Serrator Dessicatorius, who, believing that moisture is the principle of evil, dreams of a new and much drier Khymir. But Dessicatorius's insanity is too much for his heterodox second-in-command, Mancdaman Zancharthus, an engagingly ruthless pragmatist who enlists Jagutai in a plot to overthrow his master. Things are further complicated by the regal and beautiful Torrisanna, a temple prostitute with lethal designs of her own, and her her slinky handmaiden Lilitu, who'll stop at nothing to seduce Jagutai, or at least make him as miserable as possible... Supercharged with sex and bone-crunching action, Blood and Pearls is like nothing you've ever read, a hilarious, hallucinatory jolt of high-speed sword-and-sorcery.

The Judge came like a thief in the night. No one knew that the world had ended---until the sun began to rot in the sky, and the graves opened, and angels from Hell clothed themselves in the flesh of corpses...Long out of print, this murderous theological fantasy presents an epic vision of damnation and redemption, supercharged with mayhem, terror, and old-time religion. Looking for a good scare? Try The Dead, and bite off more than you can chew.

Genre Fiction

Mancdaman Zancharthus has become High priest of Tchernobog. Offended to the bone by devil worship(and fiscal insanity), he has embarked on a mad crusade to turn his own order inside out and reform the unreformable, Mother Khymir herself. Tchernobog, however, has other plans, and marshalls all his forces to maintain the status quo---wire-jacketted sendings, one-eyed cut-throats, poison-cult prostitutes, and last but not least, possessed harem piggies (it isn't as funny as it sounds). To even the odds, Zancharthus secretly schools his formidable consort Torrisanna in sorcery, and envisions an invincible bodyguard, the Cohort Ravener, commissioning his unwilling friend Jagutai to make it a reality. But Jagutai has to cope with a very significant distraction---that lewd little bundle called Lilitu, who has gotten herself into terrible trouble with Gudrid, Torrisanna's fanatical successor at the Temple of Tsa Terrathu-Even wilder than Blood+Pearls, seething with sex, blood and demonic barnyard dementia, Jagutai and Lilitu is a fever dream in print.

The Terminationer---A killer robot from the future wants to ice Shiro for some reason, but has a date with destiny at an convention for overweight SF fans. The Yellow Brick Road Warrior---Dispatched by the Grand Wizard of Australia, Shiro finds himself driving a truck full of dirt through the outback, backed up by a tin man who's really heartless, a scarecrow who's REALLY stupid, and a lion who isn't a coward…the author's favorite Samurai cat story, even though Tomokato ain't in it much. Seven Samurai Cats---a lot more Tomokato here. Kurosawa with felines…Tomokato and his brother Shimura recruit five other samurai kitties and tangle with Mexican bandits in a lesser-known action of the Sengoku Jidai. Alienated---Tomokato and Shiro find themselves on a badly-furnished, monster-infested starship manned by geriatric character actors dying for a chance to direct. Horrible larvae chew their way through Bill Shatner's toupee…need I say more? It's a Terminated Life---Henry the Angel transports Tomokato to a alternate universe where the cat's never been born, Shiro's the Malevolent God-Emperor of the universe, and Will Rogers has met someone who doesn't like him.
