Hell on Wheels
“If you liked Stephen King’s ‘Christine’ then you’ll love the way this sexy Devil’s ride burns up the road. Brett Williams is hell on wheels.” — Randy Chandler, author of HELLz BELLz and BAD JUJU
As a kid I grew up watching car movies, Vanishing Point, everything starring Burt Reynolds, Stephen King’s Christine. Then television began offering up a variety of series, such as ‘The Dukes of Hazzard’, ‘The A-Team’ with their cool van, ‘Knight Rider’. I loved the jacked-up pickup truck on ‘The Fall Guy’ and even the Power Wagon on ‘Simon and Simon’. Kudos to ‘Riptide’ for featuring boats, a helicopter, cars AND computers. Wow! But I digress…
In my teen years I started reading. Although there are a lot of great books of many genres that I’ve read since then, books featuring cars hold a special place in my heart, even those that aren’t centered on the automobile. For example, Richard Laymon’s BITE.
The influence of all these stories and cars can definitely be seen in my fiction. HIGH OCTANE DAMNATION features a ’69 Charger akin to Christine, piloted by James McGuire, a struggling alcoholic mourning the recent loss of his family. The upcoming release of my novel A GOOD TIME offers a wild weekend ride in a souped-up Camaro and an old rusty tow truck called Old Betsy.
Although very different “vehicles,” both tales offer readers a magnitude of fun, suspense, and flat-out action that readers are sure to enjoy.
HIGH OCTANE DAMNATION is available now as an ebook from Comet Press. As always, reviews are greatly appreciated. Enjoy!
