Dark Frontiers: Vampire Chronicles: Angels of the Wilderness
After the Civil War, frontier doctor Killian Obadiah Davis rides west seeking peace, but finds a nightmare waiting in the settlement of Redemption. Families vanish without struggle. Bodies are found drained of blood. And the creatures responsible move with impossible speed through the darkness.
Answering a call for help from an old comrade, Doc joins forces with sharpshooter Jed Raines, the deadly Irish gunfighter Declan Caine, U.S. Marshal Sylvanus Forrester, and steadfast saloonkeeper Patrick Godwin. Together, they stand, first in Redemption and finally, in Springfield, against a rising terror older than the West itself.
In the battle between the living and the dead, the frontier’s only hope may lie in a doctor who can heal with one hand and kill with the other.
Grit, gunpowder, and the undead collide in Book One of the Dark Vampire Chronicles.

Classic Gunslingers Vs Blood Sucking Children of the Night.
Join Doc, Declan, Jed, & Patrick in their battle against a blood thirsty pack of blood suckers. If like me, you grew up reading J. T. Edson and Louis L'Amour, along with vampire horror, then Kerry, "Doc" Davis's first book is going to be a pleasure to read for you. On the other hand, if you didn't read Edson or L'Amour, then read it anyway, because it'll still be a pleasure to read.
I couldn't put it down, and can't wait for book 2 in the series. Enjoy!

dark frontiers
You are one of the few riders that I know that truly, understands and never ending story. Because all your stories interact with characters from other stories of yours, deepening the plots and all the in different dynamics that play into it. You are truly a gifted writer. Please continue writing more books. I will be so sad when the day comes that you give it up. But like Laverne Spencer the day will come sadly when you will give up your writing, but then please don’t!

Great.story
Its really neat to see the different styles of writing but with the same characters and general story lines written by DA. I would like to see the stories keep coming from all three of the authors. This book really helped to round out Docs character and was full of insight.

Angels in The Wilderness
Wow, hard to believe this is Doc's first book. Words so beautifully written it truly deserves to be read slowly and deeply.
A wild ride indeed careful this is one you can't put down. Fast paced not a boring word to be had.
Loved it!!

Good book. There were a few little things that bothered me. I'm surprised D.A. didn't catch them.
But good book. I enjoyed it.

WONDERFUL!
Thank you for bringing Doc's past to life! What an interesting journey he's had. I love all the Wild Hunt's books and can't get enough of them 😊

Captivating
Doc captures the reader from the first page. Hard to put down, hence a sleepless night. Very good weekend read.
