The Weathered Dead

by A.J. Campbell, J.R. Lonergan

Fans of action-packed pulp fiction will love The Weathered Dead.

About the author

I was born in Ant Arctica, but I wasn't crazy about ants and had my birth records removed to Exeter, New Hampshire, in the US of A.

I began writing internationally in 1978, wrote a slew of mag articles, and two non-fiction books. Then, I "burned out" and switched to fiction, which is far more interesting.

If you didn't know, I have sense of humor.

I like women, and they become my best characters. I also like fish, but it's hard to create a good fishy heroine.

Reviews

[Will Casner · Rating 4 out of 5]

A rich story influenced by LeGuin, Harryhausen, Conan, and The Legend Of Zelda set in a world crafted seen through a foresters perspective. The book plays out as a blended mixture of travelogue, fetch quest/fantasy game and horror novel.
