Synopsis

The Wild West just got a whole lot wilder! LONG HORN, BIG SHAGGY is a tale of back-from-the-dead mountainmen, time travelling mad scientists, green ghost rock spirits, carrion stallion and zombified buffalo.

Steve Vernon - Nova Scotia's only professional horror writer - is pleased to dish out a bonecreaking romp through a funhouse in hell. This wild western novella starts at a gallop and gathers momentum faster than a stampeding avalanche.

You will never look at a severed head the same way again.

"LONG HORN, BIG SHAGGY is absolutely brilliant. A wonderful, twisted tale that's perfect for campfires and stormy nights. Steve Vernon has excelled as a writer and is one of the finest new talents of horror and dark fiction." - Owl Goingback, Bram Stoker Award Winning author of CROTA.

"What a great freakin' book. It may be novella length, but it packs more entertainment value into that thin frame than most hefty novels. Extremely well-written, endlessly inventive, and just plain fun to read." - Jeff Strand, author of MANDIBLES

If the ghost of Louis Lamour got it on with Stephen King in a Saturday night drunk-up orgy, Long Horn, Big Shaggy would be their unholy love-child. Buy it now!

Synopsis:

There's things out there that you ain't dreamt of. Like back-from-the-dead mountain men, green ghost rock spirits, carrion stallions, time-travelling mad scientists and zombified buffalo for starters. "The bullet chunked into the meat of Jonah Walker's dust gray horse long before he heard the shot." And that's just the opening line of a bonecreaking romp through an antique fun house. A wild western horror novella that starts at a gallop, and gathers momentum faster than a stampeding avalanche. You will never look at a severed head the same way again.
