Publisher's Synopsis
Wake up. You're in PREDATOR WORLD. It has been twenty years since the world went red. Twenty years since every creature on planet Earth was forced to remove vampires from the categories of myth and fancy-but the man in red doesn't remember any of that. In fact, standing in the middle of a pitch-dark savanna, he can't even produce his own name. With wide eyes, he gapes down at his hands, confounded by strange grey skin and the still wet blood there. For many moments, the compounded mysteries transfix and hold the man, though eventually, a sound reaches his hearing. To his ear, it seems a liquid sound, restless, almost musical. Seized by primal instincts, his entire body becomes an open nerve. He reels around, desperate for answers, spying the countless pairs of burning eyes which now, all but surround him. That's when the man in red stops trying to think and just runs! Written for adults and set wholly in Tanzania, THE BONE EATER KING is a fiercely unique horror-adventure. The tense narrative unfolds moment by moment, all in a fictionalized, post Apocalyptic Africa, which is plagued by vampire-like creatures called the matsatsaku maza ("leech men"). The tale's amnesiac protagonist finds himself thrust into a trial by fire, as he scrambles to rediscover not only who he is, but what sort of hell he has awoken to. THE BONE EATER KING is the first book in the PREDATOR WORLD series.
